Reading Rainbow Kickstarter

A couple of days ago, my husband showed me an article about how LeVar Burton was using KickStarter to try to bring Reading Rainbow back for every child, everywhere.  This KickStarter has a goal of developing an online platform for accessing Reading Rainbow content everywhere and providing it for free to disadvantaged schools.  I am so excited about this campaign.  As an elementary school librarian and media specialist, this is great news.  But it’s just as great for all writers and authors.  You see, if we are to have an audience for our writing, it seems to me that we need to foster the love of reading in all children for they are, or will be, our current or future audience.  As a teacher, librarian and an author, I encourage you to consider lending your support to this KickStarter campaign.
