Today marks the end of an era: the final episode of the classic television show Reading Rainbow hosted by the great LeVar Burton airs today. The memorable theme song is echoing in my head as I write this post:
Reading Rainbow taught me to love reading. I used to watch it religiously as a child, always excited to see what new books I would find on the show. A few summers ago, I was a camp counselor in Williamstown, MA. On the Fourth of July, we showed the kids a classic episode of Rainbow and to my surprise, several of them had actually seen the episode. It was the type of show that parents and kids could watch together on a Saturday morning.
Reading Rainbow, you will be missed.
