@readingrainbow is back, starring @mychal3ts and featuring a ton of my favorite kids!
Getting to cast the reboot of such an iconic series, with the most collaborative team (huge shout out to @magentakristen) was so dreamy.
With a focus on accessibility and inclusion, in every bit of the process, we created a show that reflects that reading, and the library, is for everyone!

Choo Choo, Dash is 2!
The sweetest, snuggliest, happiest boy is 2.
“Choo Choos” (Trains), “E I E I O” (Old McDonald Had a Farm), “Beep Beeps” (Firetrucks), and “Mo” are your favorite words and bring you so much joy.
The bond between you and your sister is so special, it’s no surprise you love saying her name more than anything!
You love putting the tops on everything (maybe one day, you can teach Mommy how to do that?), closing doors (another thing Mommy needs to be reminded to do!), and I can’t wait to see what else you teach us.
Keep singing at the top of your lungs.
We love you so much Dashy Doodlebug!
