Reese, who is on the show to promote her new role in Sing 2, says at the beginning of her monologue: "Sometimes, when we're busy, it can be hard to find time to notice the world around us. The things we see every day can seem a bit… ordinary. But if you stop, and look closer, you'll see that our world is extraordinary!"
The Bedtime Stories show has seen other well-known faces from the world of TV and film take part of the years. Tom Hardy became a family favourite when he appeared on the show numerous times. David Tennant, Suranne Jones and Rosamund Pike are just some of the other big names who have also leant their reading skills to the children's show.
