PRODUCT SUMMARY


From the critically acclaimed, Emmy Award-winning PBS children's series, Reading Rainbow, this program presents the book by Tomie dePaola. In this Native American tale, a young boy follows his vision quest to find the special gift he can bring to his people. Also in this episode, host LeVar Burton visits the Pueblo Indian people of Taos, New Mexico, where he interviews a Pueblo painter and a family of pottery makers, and watches the Concha family prepare for and perform a traditional Pueblo dance.

The Reading Rainbow programs are designed to encourage children to read by transporting them to exciting, real-life settings. The series introduces kids to interesting new people and places, explores social and cultural issues, and offers a close-up look at the world around them. Its dynamic, fast-paced, colorful animation and hip music entertain and reinforce these experiences, and help children embrace positive reading habits, skills and attitudes.
