CBeebies has sent mums into a frenzy by announcing that popstar Harry Styles will be the latest celebrity to read a Bedtime Story.
Fresh from headlining the world famous Coachella Festival, the singer, who rose to fame in boyband One Direction, is the latest reader to settle the nation’s children - and parents.
Airing on Monday, May 23, Harry will don his pyjamas to read ‘In Every House, on Every Street’, written by Jess Hitchman and illustrated by Lili la Baleine. The story is a heartwarming 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.”

The Cheshire-raised musician follows a long list of stars to take to the CBeebies chair and previous appearances from heartthrobs Tom Hardy and Captain America star Chris Evans have had a similar effect on older viewers.
Channel bosses announced his appearance on the CBeebies Facebook page, attracting dozens of comments.
"Might have to watch this, you know for the kids," said Sarah Wakeling. While Kira-Louise Lakeman added: "Finally, a bedtime story I’m interested in."
