Employees at the Tilbury fulfilment centre were recently surprised and delighted to see ‘Baby Spice’ turn up unannounced during a shift in the lead up to Christmas.
And the singer-turned-presenter stopped to chat with employees while also treating them with a sneak preview of a new children’s book she has narrated for the brand.
Emma Bunton revealed she loved reading bedtime stories, because she liked being able to perform for her children.
And she also admitted her husband Jade would get fully into character when reading stories, with both of them doing so to bring the words to life.
Emma has been given a new opportunity to read for kids as the narrator of a new children’s book, which is available as a free download from 15th December.
Entitled Uncle Jay’s Dream Team, the book is a celebration of employees, partners, and drivers, that recognises all the people behind every delivery.
It’s a tale of teamwork and follows a young girl named Avery, whose Uncle Jay coaches her out of the disappointing loss of a football match with a motivating pep talk.
Pulling in his friends and co-workers from the fulfilment centre where he works, Uncle Jay, with the help of Mum, shows it takes real teamwork to reach your goals.
