Tuesday marked the DVD release of Disney’s Bedtime Stories starring Adam Sandler, Courteney Cox and Keri Russell.

In December, we asked you to help us celebrate the film’s national release by posting a comment about your favorite bedtime story on our blog, with every comment posted generating one new book to a child in need through Disney.

On Monday, Disney and First Book celebrated the film’s DVD release – as well as National Reading Month – by hosting a Reading Relay in Los Angeles at the Hollywood & Highland Shopping Center in Hollywood, CA. Cast members and celebrity readers including Jonathan Morgan Heit (“Patrick”), Laura Ann Kesling (“Bobbi”), Mikey Post (“Angry Dwarf”) and Madison Pettis sat on an oversized bed and read bedtime stories from noon to 2 p.m. Comic legend Stan Lee (pictured above) also participated. For every book that was read, Disney pledged to donate 100 new books to First Book.

Together our celebrity readers read 15 books during the two-hour relay, but Disney thought 1,500 books just wasn’t enough – they decided to donate 5,000 new books to children in need! Celebrities read from classic children’s books including Where the Wild Things Are, Goodnight Moon, and Oh, the Places You’ll Go!
