THEY may be one of the most families in the world – but that doesn’t mean bedtime in the Cambridge household is always a breeze.
In fact, Prince William has now revealed the go-to bedtime story he reads George, Charlotte and Louis – and claims it’s “saved” his evenings.
Prince William says this British story book has ‘saved bedtimes’
The Duke of Cambridge made the comment about his kids’ favourite book during a visit to Joe’s Ice Cream Parlour in Wales yesterday.
After being served a scoop of chocolate ice cream, The Times reports that William saw a child reading the classic children’s book Room on The Broom by Julia Donaldson.
Speaking to the managing director of Joe’s Adrian Hughes, William confessed: “I read this to our children all the time.”
The Prince then recalled how he had met the best-selling children’s author when she was given a CBE in 2018 for her services to literature.

“I said, ‘Do you realise how many parents you have saved at bedtime?’”, William added.
Room on the Broom was first published in 2001 and has sold over six million copies and been translated into 48 languages.
The best-selling children’s book tells the story of a witch and her cat and the three other animals they invite onto the broom.
While they were leaving, the couple were given mini boxing gloves for their three children – and a delighted Prince William revealed that George is “already eyeing up the punchbag”.
