I loved this show, the documentary honors it well

There was a lot of nostalgia in this documentary for me. While it isn't so much what I look for in a documentary, I enjoyed the many stories, first hand accounts, show footage, and Lavar Burton interviews. This show did a lot for children, especially underprivileged children. It bridged a socio-economic gap that is still in place today. It is a good reminder of how important education is, and how its availability is not something we can take for granted.

Great Documentary

Brings back such memories and it was engaging and heartfelt. Feels like people made this who cared. It was enjoyable time spent. I liked the balance of clips to interviews in this an the flow. They did not try to drag it out to three episodes like sometimes happens. It has alot of information i didn't know about it but had sometimes wondered about when I was young.

Amazing documentary showing the making of the beloved children's show "Reading Rainbow"!

Reading rainbow was a staple of my childhood along with Mr Rodger's. Lavar Burton instilled a passion about reading that I only ever got from my mama. That show connected kids with the greater world and showed us how to use our imagination when we read. This severely helped with reading comprehension as a child. It is a shame that our children now days do not have those same role models and mentors to explore with. I just watched the documentary "Butterfly in the sky" about the making of Reading Rainbow. I think I smiled thru the entire thing. If this show made an impact on you, I highly recommend you watch it.
