Reading Rainbow Kickstarter1. It’s Reading Rainbow
2. It’s LeVar Burton
What? You actually need more?
This is not a KS to bring back the old show. LeVar and his team recognize the digital dizzians of this generation do not need, and may not do, television so the new Reading Rainbow will be made as a web based show viewed by subscription. The KS is to make the show available free to any classrooms that request it. The one million dollar goal was reached in just 11 hours but to me that is not the point. Getting kids to read for pleasure is a key to everything else they will do in life. If they are unwilling or unable to read they will find the value in comics, RPGs, and the fiction of all sorts that lead us to the hobbies that brought us here.
Even if it’s just $5.00 this is something each and every one of us should put our support behind so please go over and check it out
