A lot of us have been turning to reading these days; whether it's getting through untouched novels, or returning to old favourites. If you're a fan of books being read to you, and a 'Harry Potter' fan, this latest should definitely peak your interest.

A number of celebrities are reading 'Harry Potter and the Philosopher's Stone' (or 'Harry Potter and the Sorcerer's Stone', in the USA) to help you though quarantine times.

Daniel Radcliffe, Stephen Fry, David Beckham, Dakota Fanning, Claudia Kim, Noma Dumezweni and Eddie Redmayne have all been confirmed for the series. And there are still more to come.

Redmayne is of course the star of the spin-off wizarding world series 'Fantastic Beasts'. Meanwhile Daniel Radcliffe is the titular boy wizard himself.

Thus there's no one better for the job to read chapter one of the bestselling fantasy. You know it - "The Boy Who Lived".

All 17 chapters of the book will be released between now and mid-summer with videos posted weekly on harrypotterathome.com.

An audio-only version is available for free on Spotify.

Watch a teaser for the series below.
