PRODUCT SUMMARY


From the critically acclaimed, Emmy Award-winning PBS children's series, Reading Rainbow, this program presents the book by Susan Meddaugh. In the story, problems arise when Martha, the family dog, learns to speak after eating alphabet soup. Viewers will see clips of old-time dog heroes and dogs doing tricks, meet an animal trainer who demonstrates how he trains dogs for TV and movie roles, and take a walk with a dog at the dog's eye level.

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.
