Savannah’s new book
Discussing the inspiration behind her recent passion project, Savannah said: “We often tell our children how much we love them, but how different would our world be if we shared the simple truth that God loves them, too.
“This book is my way of sharing that message with the next generation so they grow up knowing how cherished they are and how, in turn, they can share that same love with others.”
Religion lies at the centre of Savannah’s heart as she revealed it’s “what makes me tick”. In an interview with Today.com, she shared: “It’s what makes me joyful. It’s what helps me navigate the world and stresses and disappointments and fears.”
