Theo Walcott helped out with bedtime for young Blues on Monday night - by reading the book that is raising vital funds for Everton in the Community and the Blue Family campaign.

Billy The Spaceman, written by Everton employee Mike Taylor, has raised more than £4,000 since going on sale last month - money that will help Everton in the Community continue to support vulnerable and isolated people across the region during the coronavirus pandemic and beyond.

Walcott, an author of his own series of children's books, read Billy The Spaceman for a special edition of Everton Storytime, with the video now available on demand below or via the Club's official YouTube channel.

Billy The Spaceman tells the story of a young boy who realises his dream of blasting into space after enlisting the help of Elvis, his Siamese cat, to build a rocket.

The pair then set off on an adventure through the solar system, learning fun facts along the way.
