PRODUCT SUMMARY
From the critically acclaimed,
Emmy Award-winning PBS children's series,
Reading Rainbow, this program presents the book by David Lyon. In the book, Sebastian's pull-toy duck, Egbert, has many adventures after Sebastian ties him to the bumper of his father's car. Also in this episode, host LeVar Burton visits Maryland's Chesapeake Bay Bird Sanctuary, where a naturalist teaches him about waterfowl and their environment, and viewers get a glimpse at the intricate art of duck carving and hear expert duck callers "call" a duck.
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.
