The Reading Rainbow revival will feature “original music, dance parties, field trips, cultural explorations, investigations of the natural world – and of course, the book of the day” and have a different theme “designed to engage and inform young viewers.” Unlike the original LeVar Burton-hosted version, Reading Rainbow Live will be hosted by multiple performers, a move that producers think will give children the chance to better see themselves in the “diverse” cast, dubbed “The Rainbows.”
