Aussie superstar Ash Barty has announced her next career move and it’s shocked fans

Barty has confirmed she will be producing a series of children’s books as her first project since retiring from Professional tennis last month.

Reports suggest the six-book series will be called ‘Little Ash’. The series is expected to focus on Barty’s life on and off the tennis court.

When she announced she was retiring from Professional Tennis at the top of her career, the 25-year-old told fans she has her eyes set on big goals in 2022.

Barty says her five year -old niece Lucy is a major inspiration behind the book series. The book will be published by HarperCollins and will hit shelves in July.

“The project has been so much fun and something I have always wanted to do,”
“Lucy was my north star. She is the perfect age to understand stories and storylines and read chapter books.
“Being able to read it to her will be great and to go up to readings to kids in rural areas is something I want to be really hands-on with.”
