Princess Beatrice's parents helped her overcome her battle with Dyslexia.
Princess Beatrice and Sarah Ferguson
The 28-year-old royal has opened up about her struggles with the reading disorder and how her mother Sarah Ferguson would create a story about her father Prince Andrew when he was away working as a helicopter pilot in the Royal Navy and put it on tape to help her.
Beatrice - who was speaking to mark World Book Day on Thursday (02.03.17) - shared: "To help us feel close to him, my mother was inspired to create the Budgie the Little Helicopter series based on imagining the many adventures brave helicopter pilots would face every day. "To this day, these stories make me think back, with the fondest memories, to a time when books would take me into the best adventures and fill my mind with the best images."
Still to this day, the bedtime story recordings are Beatrice's favourite memory of growing up with her younger sister Princess Eugenie, 26.
She added: "If my parents ever traveled they would take time to record some of my favorite books on tape and I would listen to their voices as I fell asleep.
"[It's] one of my favorite memories from storytime with my parents."
Sharing how "hard" it was to be behind her school mates in English because of her dyslexia, she said: "Reading was really hard work, even trying to get through the pages of some of the simple school reading books.
"I could not understand why I was still reading behind my classmates. It was at this point that stories became one of the key things which inspired me."
Despite her struggle with words, Beatrice believes being diagnosed with dyslexia is the "greatest thing" to have happened to her.
She previously said: "Being diagnosed with dyslexia was the greatest thing that ever happened to me because it allowed me to become part of this community of people that really are championing young people's education and making sure that we protect our young people in school and in life."
