Oh yes, this is hella wholesome!
From People:
Amazing Grace by Mary Hoffman. “We Can Get Them for You Wholesale” by Neil Gaiman.
These are some of the stories that LeVar Burton, the beloved host of PBS’ Reading Rainbow, has been reading aloud on Twitter livestream in order to cheer up kids and adults stuck at home during the COVID-19 pandemic.
“It was just a matter of wanting to step into the moment,” Burton, 63, told CBS This Morning on Monday. “Recognizing where we are and wanting to make a contribution. And I thought, ‘Well, I can read, so let me do that.’”
On Wednesday, Burton sent Twitter into an excited frenzy when he announced that he would perform readings for children, teens and adults three times a week starting on April 3. The actor will read kids’ books on Mondays at 12 p.m. ET, YA books on Wednesdays at 6 p.m. , and adult-focused stories on Fridays at 9 p.m. as part of “LeVar Burton Reads.”
