John Robbins’ The Book Bird

As a child, I adored this show. John Robbins illustrates a scene from a story, while the voice over reads an excerpt from the book. I found so many great books this way, and found watching his drawings absolutely mesmerizing. I am so glad I finally found a video of one of his shows. This is what children’s programing should be, not shrill neon puppets screaming and selling cheap plastic toys made in China by other children.
