New Books Alive! For Kids®
Television Show
Learning Through Art, Inc. presents Books Alive! For Kids® educational television program, which first premiered on Local 12 primetime at 7 p.m., Tuesday, April 24, 2007.
On the first Sunday of each month, the CinCW will air Books Alive! For Kids® at 8:30 a.m. at its regularly-scheduled time. Each episode is based on a hand-selected book, and is driven by the topic of the book. Books Alive! For Kids® incorporates a hands-on craft and live presentation, which can be purchased online.
The first program features Don Carter's book, "Heaven's All-Star Jazz Band," which tells the story of a little boy's discovery of Jazz music. The boy, played by Craig "CJ" Thompson, is visited by a Jazz vocalist (Kathy Wade), who teaches him about the rich history of Jazz, the joy in the sounds of the Jazz greats, as well as the key lesson that books can transport you anywhere.
