BROOKE SHIELDS - SHIELDS TURNS CHILDREN'S AUTHOR

Actress BROOKE SHIELDS is following in the footsteps of stars like JAMIE LEE CURTIS and MADONNA by writing her first children's book. The Blue Lagoon star's experiences as a mum-of-two inspired her to pen Welcome To Your World, Baby. Shields, who famously suffered from post-partum depression following the birth of daughter Rowan in 2003, says, "I've just finished writing my first children's book. It's about a little sister waiting and having a new baby sister coming home and anticipating (her arrival)." Welcome To Your World, Baby will be released in June (08).
