LONDON, Nov 8 (AFP) - The eight-year-old daughter of pop diva Madonna has written a yarn for a collection of Yuletide fables to raise money for the fight against cancer.
In contributing to "Christmas Stories" in aid of the Teenage Cancer Trust, little Lourdes Leon is following in the footsteps of her mother, whose first children's book "English Roses" sold more than 500,000 copies worldwide.
Fourteen other celebrities have also contributed to the anthology, including former royal family member Sarah Ferguson and Sharon Osbourne, wife of rock singer Ozzy Osbourne, who wrote about her bulldog Lola.
The book will be launched at London department store Selfridges on Tuesday.
