Great excitement in mum-land as Harry Styles was announced as the next star to read a CBeebies Bedtime story. Fresh from headlining the world famous Coachella Festival, Harry Styles will be settling us all to sleep on May 23 by reading In Every House, on Every Street, written by Jess Hitchman and illustrated by Lili la Baleine.
The story is a heart-warming celebration of homes and the different families that live in them. Introducing the story, Harry says: “Tonight’s bedtime story is about a house full of love and laughter.”
Twitter reacted overwhelmingly positively with @BrummieFrog saying: "Harry Styles is doing the CBeebies bedtime story next week. Don’t combust, mums!". @NatalieGilliss agreed: "Not Harry Styles doing a bedtime story for CBeebies! What a time to have a toddler."
@sandwich135 said: "GUYS! Harry Styles is going to be reading a bedtime story on cbeebies and I am so excited! don’t ask why!" and @TheBrightSideHP said: ""Am I 35 years old? Yes I am. Will I be watching CBeebies Bedtime Stories next Monday? Absolutely yes!"
Readers of CBeebies Bedtime Stories in the past year have included Her Royal Highness, The Duchess of Cambridge, Tom Hiddleston, Ellie Goulding, Dave Grohl and Rose Ayling-Ellis who signed her story in British Sign Language.
But the reigning CBeebies champion (with mums anyway) is still Tom Hardy who is the most popular CBeebies Bedtime Stories reader ever. He first appeared on CBeebies back in 2016 and since then his Bedtime Stories have been requested over one million times on BBC iPlayer.
CBeebies Bedtime Stories is on each weekday at 6.50pm on the CBeebies channel and is also available on BBC iPlayer. Harry Styles will feature on May 23.
