Rapper Snoop Dogg is set to release an illustrated children's book series. The rapper - real name Calvin Broadus - is reportedly in the process of creating the "Where's The Cheese" series of urban books.

Snoop is writing "Where's The Cheese," which will be illustrated by his cousin Joe Cool, to help city youngsters cope with the problems that can arise in their environment.

The series will focus on a character called Lil Mouse and her constant quest for cheese, reports AllHipHop.com. The website also claims an animated Where's The Cheese TV show is in development - which may be narrated by Snoop's daughter Cori 'Choc' Broadus.

Last month, Snoop announced his youth is to be turned into an animated series for Comedy Central cable TV network.
