With schools now closed due to coronavirus, these celebs have teamed up to take over story time.
This joyful initiative, started by Amy Adams and Jennifer Garner, involves celebrities reading their favourite children’s stories online for kids the world over to enjoy — and it’s all for a good cause.
All proceeds will go towards Save The Children and No Kid Hungry. This idea is aimed at ensuring no child goes hungry, which is increasingly important during this difficult period.

Parents in particular will no doubt have a truckload more to deal with during these uncertain times, especially now that movement has been limited in the UK. So, if some stress relief can be brought in the form of stories read to children over the internet, then this is surely a good thing. And, as it’s all for an excellent cause, it’s an all-round winner.
Adams, Garner and plenty of other celebrities have been providing entertainment and spreading joy. And everyone who watches is, of course, encouraged to make a donation to both charities.
Stories so far have included “Harold And The Purple Crayon” by Ron Howard, “The Gruffalo” by Demi Lovato, “There Was An Old Lady Who Swallowed A Fly” by P!NK and many more. All stories can be viewed on the Save With Stories Instagram page, but here are a few to get you started:
