The Oscar-winning actress and producer, shared exclusively with PEOPLE that she will publish her debut children’s book, “The Girl Who Was Too Big for the Page“, in spring 2025. Davis also illustrated the book, which is forthcoming from Philomel Books, an imprint of Penguin Young Readers.
“I’ve always been tall – I was a tall baby,” Davis says in a statement shared with PEOPLE. “As a kid, my fondest wish was to take up less space in the world. It was only as an adult I realized I could be all of who I was, unapologetically. So I wrote this book for all of the ‘too big’ children — including children with big personalities and big dreams — who need reassurance that they can be their true selves and make their own space in the world,” Davis continues. “It was a joy to write, and so wonderful to be able to illustrate my own words to bring my characters to life. I can’t wait to have it out in the world.”
