5.0 out of 5 stars Best children's educational series, July 6, 2007

This review is from: Reading Rainbow Favorites (DVD)

Move over "Sesame Street," it's "Reading Rainbow!" This is a wonderful children's series, which encourages children to read. Each segment has children giving a brief description of the book they read.

Be prepared to go on to a journey of make-believe, and have fun while you're doing it by reading the suggested books these children recommend!

I grew up on this show in the 80's, and it's amongst the best educational shows. The theme song inspires children to reach beyond the sky's limits and explore the wonderful world of reading!

This series is perfect and entertaining for the child who enjoys reading, and even for the child, who doesn't like reading.

Highly recommended for children, parents and teachers, alike!

Buy it today, you'll be glad you did!

4.0 out of 5 stars Worth it!, May 19, 2009

This review is from: Reading Rainbow Favorites (DVD)

I bought this to show my 2nd grade class. Reading Rainbows, in general are tops, but some are better than others. I like 3 out of the 4 DVDs,(but for the price, it is worth it even for the 3). I judge this purely by my class, they were not wild about the DVD that pertains to music. One of the episodes on that one is an older one, and honestly we didn't even finish it, but if I remember, it didn't use the typical Reading Rainbow format. All the other episodes in this collection were a big hit though, and the DVD with Taxi Dog on it was worth it right there!

This review is from: Reading Rainbow Favorites (DVD)

Reading rainbow was my favorite show when I was growing up...it was probably one of the reasons I am such I big reader. It is a wonderful show that I think should have never gone off the air. I reccomend this to every child, even those who don't like reading...Reading rainbow had a way to make the books interesting and come to life.
