Summary
Picture LaVar Burton singing the theme song of Reading Rainbow and go down the rabbit hole of picture books with us! We talk about our favorite picture books from childhood (Sarah will never tire of Make Way for Ducklings or Stellaluna, Jade has a soft spot for Corduroy and Ping from The Story About Ping and David shares his love for Owl Moon), the history and evolution of picture books, some new favorites, and books we recommend to parents and kids. There is no shame in reading picture books, so adults (and teens) head to your local library or bookstore, grab a handful of books and reminisce over favorites from your childhood. Studies show that reading picture books helps with memory and makes us more kind, we need more kindness in the world.
