The OUR BIG HOME Reading Rainbow episode with LeVar Burton premiered at the United Nations on International Literacy Day. It was fun to share this honor with author and friend Linda Glaser.
Nobel Peace Prize recipient and UN Secretary General Kofi Annan and his wife Nane used the cover of OUR BIG HOME as their Holiday card. Here is the lovely note that Mrs. Annan wrote to Linda Glaser and me.
