In 2020, during a visit to South Wales, the Prince and Princess of Wales spotted a child reading Julia Donaldson's Room On The Broom.
Prince William confessed: "I read this to our children all the time," before revealing he had met Donaldson before when she earned her CBE (Commander of the British Empire) for services to literature.

"I said, 'Do you realise how many parents you have saved at bedtime?'" he recalled.
During the tea party, Prince William also spoke with Squadron Leader Chrissie Lacey, a padre serving at RAF (Royal Air Force) Coningsby near Lincoln.
The father-of-three revealed that his eldest son, Prince George, would enjoy visiting the base as he's a "potential pilot in the making."
Second in line to the throne, the 10-year-old has loved aviation since he was young. The Princess of Wales shared in 2016 that George was "obsessed with planes and wants to become an air cadet".
