The couple also talked about the book in a joint statement obtained by People Magazine.
“As parents to three amazing children, we know how important it is to share the gift of reading with kids at an early age. Through this book, we hope to not only encourage kids worldwide to read but also inspire them to pursue their dreams with a ‘Why Not You’ attitude,” the statement read.
The couple is known for their love of philanthropy. Russel founded the Why Not You Foundation, which is a nonprofit “dedicated to education, children’s health and fighting poverty, empowering today’s youth to lead with a why not you attitude.”
The children’s book leads with the same concept as the foundation and is even named after it.
