A star-studded line-up of guests will read Bluey<\/a> story books for a new spin-off series from the wildly popular children\u2019s cartoon, following a Blue Heeler puppy and her family.<\/p>\n

The first episode of Bluey Book Reads sees sisters Kylie Minogue and Dannii Minogue voice the title character and her sister, Bingo, respectively, for an adventure sparked when their father, Bandit, remarks that the siblings are too different.<\/p>\n

In a statement, Kylie described Bluey as an \u201cAussie icon\u201d and said that the familial aspect of the story made this a desirable job for herself and her sister, coming off a banner year that saw the success of single Padam Padam and dating show I Kissed A Boy<\/a>.<\/p>\n

\u201cMini Bluey was perfect for us for obvious reasons: big sister and little sister! It reminded me so much of being kids growing up in Australia,\u201d said Kylie. \u201cIt\u2019s a funny, sweet and heart-warming tale of being yourself and encouraging others to do the same.<\/p>\n
