From the critically acclaimed, Emmy Award-winning PBS children's series, Reading Rainbow, this program presents the book by NFL superstar twin brothers Tiki and Ronde Barber. The book tells the story of how, as youngsters, the brothers learned that success is built on team effort. Viewers will then follow athletes as they train for, play and enjoy a variety of sports, while learning that every player on a team has a special role in contributing to the success of the group. Host LeVar Burton points out that lessons learned in sports can help children achieve their goals.
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.
