Reading Rainbow: The Next Generation

If you or your kids have been near a TV in the past few decades, you probably went gaga for Reading Rainbow, the PBS children’s show hosted by LeVar Burton that encouraged young people to read.

The show is no more, but LeVar Burton is still determined to turn kids into book lovers with a Reading Rainbow mobile app.

Check out the details, including a charming trailer, over at Bookish.
