PRODUCT SUMMARY
From the critically acclaimed,
Emmy Award-winning PBS children's series,
Reading Rainbow, this program presents the book by Peter Spier. In the story, two bored brothers keep themselves busy on a lazy afternoon by building and flying an airplane. Also in this episode, host LeVar Burton visits a flight school and airport, and learns about pioneers in flights, including the Wright Brothers and Charles Lindberg.
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.
