Serena Williams had fun exploring her new children’s book The Adventures of Qai Qai with daughter Olympia, who thinks she’s in the book

Serena Williams and her daughter Olympia are loving the professional tennis player’s new children’s book.

Sharing a video on Instagram, Williams explores her children’s book The Adventures of Qai Qai, out now, with daughter Olympia. The book, inspired by social media reactions to Olympia’s doll’s name, follows the adventures of the doll and the girl who loves her.

As Williams shows in the video, Olympia continues to think that the little girl in the book is her. Williams started by brushing her daughter’s hair and telling her, “Oh girl, we’re going to do your hair today.”

Williams suggested they try on a look similar to the book’s main character, to which Olympia said: “That’s me.”

“That’s not, no that’s not you,” Williams replies, to which Olympia objects again.

“Tell me about your day, we at the salon girl,” the mom says, changing the subject. “I want to hear all about your day.”

In a later scene, she reads a line from the book which says “get it babygirl, work that runway,” and encourages Olympia to do the same.

“Work that runway!” Serena shouts as Olympia struts around, stumbling briefly before regaining her stride.

She then runs back to her mom, sits next to her and says, “That was cool!”

Asked how Olympia likes the book, Williams shared that her little girl, whom she shares with husband Alexis Ohanian, believes the book is actually about her, and not her doll Qai Qai.

“Olympia thinks it’s her in the book. She thinks the mom is me and she thinks the dad is my husband,” she said with a laugh. “It’s quite funny because I’m like ‘It’s not us.’ I don’t want it to go to her head.”

Sharing more about her first children’s book, Williams explained that the story includes “some really cool hidden messages about self-confidence” and goes “back to the art about being a kid.”

“We can’t forget how important it is to use your imagination and play and also believe in yourself,” she added.
