A nostalgic journey into the world of the beloved children’s television show Reading Rainbow that ran for 26 years on PBS, Butterfly in the Sky tells the inspiring story of a handful of broadcasters, educators, and filmmakers who believed television could inspire a lifelong love of reading. It also tells the origin story of how LeVar Burton (known for playing the role of “Kunta Kinte” in the TV mini-series Roots) became the show’s iconic host.
