And the couple then revealed the book is one of the favourites of their children Amelia, six, and Theo, three.
Previous guests on Sarah's YouTube channel have included her daughters, Princess Beatrice and Princess Eugenie, as well as TV presenter Dermot O'Leary and Princess Diana's wedding dress designer, Elizabeth Emanuel.
Fergie - who is currently isolating at Royal Lodge Windsor with her ex-husband Prince Andrew, Princess Eugenie and her husband Jack Brooksbank - started posting the videos in April, with the aim of encouraging children to pick up a book and read in lockdown and beyond.
Explaining the premise of the sweet initiative in her first video, the red-haired royal said, “Hello everybody. It’s so exciting because I’m in my favourite place ever, ever, and ever and that’s with children – and I’m thinking of all children out there that just need a little bit of magic. So, everyday, I’m going to do story time with Fergie and friends – not just Fergie!
“You haven’t to worry, they’re not very long books – well they could be long books – let’s get a bit of magic going here shall we!”
