Sinopsis

Reading Rainbow is one of the most successful PBS children’s series in television history, earning numerous national and international awards including 26 Emmy’s and a Peabody Award. But perhaps more important than anything else, Reading Rainbow helped generations of children cultivate a love for books.

The brainchild of co-author Tony Buttino, Reading Rainbow is very much a story of humble beginnings and enormous perseverance. Over five summers, co-author Tony Buttino and his colleagues at WNED-TV, the public television station in Buffalo, New York, worked in collaboration with educators and librarians to experiment with summer reading programs. But after finding these programs inadequate, WNED staffers realized they had to create their own show. After fits and starts, and enough twists and turns to fill a children’s book, Reading Rainbow premiered in the summer of 1983 and captured the attention of 6.5 million young viewers worldwide.

Reading Rainbow Stories explores the many intriguing and homespun stories that, when woven together, reveal how this groundbreaking and iconic television series came to be. What led to the series being called “Reading Rainbow”? How did the road to Reading Rainbow wind its way through MisterRogers’ Neighborhood? How did a public television station in Buffalo spearhead a revolution in education and spark the passion for reading in millions of children? And, what does lasagna have to do with it?

Brimming with behind-the-scenes stories, never-before-seen photographs, Buttino’s own first-person tales, and original interviews with those who worked on the series’ development– from local educators and librarians to the national production team – Reading Rainbow Stories gives readers an inside look the foundational work, origin, and history of the beloved television show that still inspires readers today.

Acerca del autor

Barbara J. Irwin, Ph.D. is Professor of Communication at Canisius College in Buffalo, NY. Dr. Irwin has served as a consultant to daytime television industry leaders and is frequently sought after by local and national media; her interviews have appeared on National Public Radio, E! Entertainment Network, and in USA Today and The Los Angeles Times, among others. Irwin worked as a Reading RainbowProject Assistant in the Educational Services department at WNED-TV, the public televisionstation in Buffalo, New York.

Tony Buttino is best known for his creation of the Emmy award-winning Public TV series Reading Rainbow. Most of his forty years of working at WNED-TV was spent utilizing and marketing television as a teaching and learning tool. A six-year effort to use television to bridge the summer reading gap led to his creation of Reading Rainbow, which began as a summer series on PBS, reaching over 6 million beginning readers in its first season. The series went on to become a year-round sensation and was broadcast for 26 years – the third longest running children’s series on PBS. Although as co-executive producer, Buttino garnered five Emmy Awards for Outstanding Children’s Series, he says his biggest accomplishment is being able to reach youngsters through television and being able to motivate them to read.

Pamela Johnson, Ph.D. is Executive Director of the Ready To Learn Initiative at the Corporation for Public Broadcasting (CPB), a school readiness program developed in partnership with PBS KIDS, leading children’s content producers, researchers, and America’s public media stations. Prior to joining CPB, Dr. Johnson served as Vice President for Education and Outreach at WNED in Buffalo, New York where she spearheaded learning services and developed innovative initiatives including ThinkBright TV, the Buffalo Professional Development and Technology Center, PBS TeacherLine NY, and Reading Rainbow’s national outreach and web presence.
