They also shared a quote from the monarch during an event at Buckingham Palace to celebrate British children's literature in 2006: "This magic of our childhoods – the characters, the stories, the imagination of it all – is an enduring and essential part of our culture."
The Queen isn't the only member of the royal family to commemorate World Book Day. The Duchess of Cornwall visited a school in London on Thursday as part of the "share a million stories" challenge, to promote the importance of reading to children. Camilla has been the patron of the National Literacy Trust since 2010 and Clarence House said in a tweet: "The Duchess of Cornwall believes every person, young and old, should be able to share the love of reading."
This week the Queen has been carrying out investiture ceremonies and held audiences with Ambassador from Cuba, Mrs Bárbara Elena Montalvo Álvarez, and the President of the Republic of Malta at Buckingham Palace. She will attend the annual Commonwealth Day service at Westminster Abbey on Monday 9 March with the Prince of Wales, the Duchess of Cornwall, the Duke and Duchess of Cambridge and the Duke and Duchess of Sussex.
