TV Program: Reading Rainbow: Stay Away From the Junkyard!

"One man's trash is another man's treasure," Levar Burton says as he browses through his garage and discovers some important memories that he can't throw away. The featured book is STAY AWAY FROM THE JUNKYARD by Tricia Tusa, read by Michele Mariana. The story is about a little girl who discovers a wonderful friend in a small town junkyard. Special guest is Michael Ives, an artist who uses junk to create wonderful works of art. He constructs a story box from disgarded pieces of wood. Levar Burton also shares some old family pictures from his early youth and young readers recommend some old classics: MAKE WAY FOR DUCKLINGS, THE SNOWY DAY and THE STORY OF FERDINAND.
