Remember "Reading Rainbow," which ran on PBS from 1983 until 2006? Well, the show lives on via the Reading Rainbow iPad App, which offers up the series for free.

"Reading Rainbow" host LeVar Burton talks (in autotune, natch) about the greatness of those old paperbound relics, books: "A book lets you zoom through time and space ... you bring a book to life in your imagination."

What do you think? Is this a nice way to introduce the younger generation to a classic PBS show?
