Alyssa Milano is channeling her activism in a new mode: children\u2019s books.<\/p>\n
EW can exclusively announce that Milano has signed a major book deal with Scholastic to publish a series entitled Hope, with the first volume slated for an Oct. 1, 2019 release. Illustrated by Eric S. Keyes, it\u2019s described as an empowering fiction series centered on a spunky 11-year-old girl who seeks to create social change in her community.<\/p>\n
\u201cAs a mother, I can\u2019t think of a more important time to let kids know that their voice matters,\u201d Milano said in a statement. \u201cI\u2019m so excited about my new character, Hope Roberts. She believes in dreaming big. She\u2019s brave and strong and confident in her abilities \u2014 but she\u2019s also a girl just trying to survive middle school. I\u2019m thrilled to be working with Scholastic on this empowering book series and can\u2019t wait for everyone to meet Hope.\u201d<\/p>\n
Named one of the 2017 Persons of the Year in TIME magazine alongside other activists, Milano gained notice last year for helping to popularize the #MeToo movement. As an actress she\u2019s known for her roles in Charmed, Melrose Place, and Who\u2019s the Boss? (see a photo from her childhood role above) and she most recently appeared in the Netflix series Insatiable.<\/p>\n
\u201cI\u2019ve been a huge fan of Alyssa Milano\u2019s for years and I was so excited from the very moment she shared her idea and vision for Hope \u2014 a series centered around a smart and passionate character who is ready to conquer the world,\u201d Debra Dorfman, Vice President and Publisher for Global Licensing, Brands and Media of Scholastic, said in a statement. \u201cAlyssa is such positive role model and I admire how she uses her voice and her platform to help those in need around the world, especially children. We at Scholastic are thrilled to share her inspiring and hopeful message to kids everywhere.\u201d<\/p><\/blockquote>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
