Next week kid’s channel CBeebies launches its CBeebies Story Time interstitials, in which celebrities read popular Australian books for young children.

There are 24 x 5 minute episodes and next week it begins with Natalie Bassingthwaighte on Monday at 7:15pm. Next week’s guests to follow are Claudia Karvan, Michael Caton, Luke Nguyen and Lynne McGranger.

Nguyen, who appears on Thursday said, “I wanted to take part because I’m a big kid myself, I really enjoy reading children’s stories to children, I really think it’s fun, and I love imagination and showing and seeing the facial expressions on children.

“I really enjoy reading story books to children because it never happened to me as a kid. We come were boat immigrants and my family worked a lot so I never got the chance to be read a story, so when I read it to someone or read it to myself, I really find it fantastic and enjoyable.”

Also appearing are Shane Jacobson, Yumi Stynes, Graeme Base, Gina Jeffreys, Toni Pearen, Kate Langbroek, Adam Brand, Liz Ellis and Glenn Wheeler.

    This post is about children’s literacy, not whatever it is you’re talking about.
