Last month the Duchess of Cambridge made her bedtime stories debut to share a book she enjoyed as a little girl.
Kate described the children’s classic The Owl Who Was Afraid Of The Dark, by Jill Tomlinson, as an “encouraging tale” during her narration of the book to mark Children’s Mental Health Week.
