Reading Rainbow was a half hour educational children’s show that aired on PBS from 1983-2009. The show was written, produced, and hosted by LeVar Burton. Each show featured a children’s book being read, followed by a deep dive by Mr. Burton exploring the places and things featured in that week’s book. Mr. Burton is often credited for igniting a lifelong love a reading in many people. Have a young person in your life? Nash has almost 1,200 children’s books in our lower lev...el collection! It’s a safe and fun way to show them the world. Take a look, it’s in a book #blackhistory #blackhistorymonth @readingrainbow @levar.burton
