PRODUCT SUMMARY
From the critically acclaimed,
Emmy Award-winning PBS children's series,
Reading Rainbow, this program presents the book by Tricia Tusa and Stuart Murphy. The Elm Street Kids Club needs money to fix up their clubhouse, so the members decide to sell lemonade and monitor their success by tracking daily sales. In this math-based episode, host LeVar Burton visits Wall Street in New York City, where he explores big and small businesses, and talks about entrepreneurs. Viewers learn about stocks and get an up-close look at the economics of running a business.
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.
