PRODUCT SUMMARY
From the critically acclaimed,
Emmy Award-winning PBS children's series,
Reading Rainbow, this program presents the book by Jon Agee. The book tells the story of Ludlow, a big grump who never laughs or even smiles. One night he has the funniest dream ever, and when he starts to laugh, the whole world laughs with him. Also in this episode, host LeVar Burton gets a comic make-over and visits with real-life, stand-up comic Peter Pitofsky.
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.
