PRODUCT SUMMARY
From the critically acclaimed,
Emmy Award-winning PBS children's series,
Reading Rainbow, this program presents the book
Math Curse by Jon Scieszka. The book takes a zany and hilarious look at how most everything in our lives is math-related. In the episode, host LeVar Burton tracks down, scouts out and sneaks up on math-in-action, and finds out why a factory, shipping company or an artist can't work without math skills.
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.
