David Walliams would “safeguard libraries” if he was in charge.

David Walliams, comedian and best selling children’s author, would demand the ‘safeguarding’ of libraries if he was Prime Minister for the day.

During an interview with Radio Times magazine, Walliams described how important libraries can be, and how they influenced his own life. As a father to a five-year-old son, Walliams also finds that moments of sharing a book with your child are key to developing their reading skills.
