Little, Brown Books for Young Readers announced that the 70-year-old Rolling Stones star would release a book called 'Gus & Me: The Story of My Granddad and My First Guitar' on September 9.
The book will be available in hard copy with CD as well as E-book format, according to the The Hollywood Reporter.
The book "offers a rare and intimate" look of Richards' relationship with his grandfather, a jazz musician who introduced him to music.
Richards has joined forces with his 28-year-old daughter Theodora Dupree Richards, who is named after Richards' grandfather, for the illustration. The musician will also work with Barnaby Harris and Bill Shapiro for the book.
