Posh appears in Halliwell's new book

Former Spice Girl Geri Halliwell's new career as a children's author will feature a familiar face - her former bandmate Victoria Beckham will appear in the book.

The 34-year-old, who has been signed up by Macmillan Children's Books, says creating the novel's main character, nine-year-old Ugenia Lavender, was "an adventure".
