YouTuber Caspar Lee Collaborates With His Mom On a Memoir

By Maryann Yin 

Caspar Lee, a YouTube star, and Emily Riordan Lee, his mom, have signed a deal with Hachette Book Group. The mother son duo collaborated on a memoir entitled Caspar Lee.

The video embedded above features Lee’s announcement about the project. The Grand Central Publishing division has scheduled the publication date for May 31.

Here’s more from the press release: “Caspar and his mom are presenting his story in an exciting new way. Unbeknownst to Caspar, his mom signed a book deal agreeing to write his life story. Luckily, Caspar found out about the book at the last minute and dashed to the printer in the nick of time to make corrections in the margins and over his mom’s text, telling his side of the story. The results are both hilarious and heart-warming.”
