A teenage authoress will be joined by an adult writer for the launch of her debut book. 

Julie Tanner, 13, from Kirby, approached 400 celebrities to compile a book of what inspired them.  The result was 101 Reasons to Get Up in the Morning, hotly tipped to be a top Christmas stocking filler. 

The book will raise money CRY (Cardiac Risk in the Young).  Children’s author Nick Butterworth will join Julie for the launch at Caxtons, Connaught Avenue at 11.30am on Friday.
