Reading Rainbow still

Synopsis

LeVar learns that telling a story or listening to one can unlock the imagination as he watches Chicago City Limits, an improvisational performance group. Kids tell their own stories in the books they make. While walking the beach, LeVar explores the history and adventure of sea chanteys, and talks with winners of a sand sculpture contest.

But you don't have to take my word for it — books as after-school adventure.
