After 26 Years, Reading Rainbow Cancelled

"Take a look, it's in a book ... ". Most of you know the words to the song if you grew up watching Reading Rainbow and after 26 wonderful years, the show is coming to an end. The 26 years the show was on the air made it the third-longest for a television show behind Sesame Street and Mister Rogers Neighborhood. The show starred LeVar Burton who came to prominence starring in Roots and later in Star Trek: The Next Generation, though many of us will remember him as the host of the children's show that encouraged us to read. I haven't even seen the show in several years but it still holds a place in my heart and here in the office, we still sing the song out loud causing others to join in on the catchy tune (see the video here ... you know you want to). In case you're wondering, here are the lyrics courtesy of BestChildrensMusic.com:

Butterfly in the sky I can go twice as high Take a look It's in a book A Reading Rainbow

I can go anywhere Friends to know And ways to grow A Reading Rainbow

I can be anything Take a look It's in a book A Reading Rainbow A Reading Rainbow And while you're enjoying the video here, make sure to check out special Starving Students offers to save you money on your move.
