You Probably Know Her Best as Julie Andrews, Actress
Julie began writing children's books over 35 years ago as a result of a game she played with her children. After the first one, she liked it and, happily for all of us, has continued writing.
Many of her children's books are co-authored with her daughter, Emma. Several have been best sellers. Some have become classics.
Julie's books are featured below. If you love Julie Andrews and if you enjoy reading, we think you're really going to love Julie Andrews Edwards, the author.

- Hey Susan!
What a wonderful lens! I have admired and followed Julie Andrews films for many years starting with A Sound Of Music, but I had NO idea she is an author! I look forward to reading her work! Thank You!

- I hadn't realised she was an author. Amazing how I could have gone about in such ignorance. Thanks for the information which, as always, is the best from your pen - or i should say, keyboard.

- I always liked her as an actress but never knew that she had written any books, so was informative for me. Perhaps I can get some for my grandchildren, if and when I have any
