Mystery on the Docks

Product Description

The Reading Rainbow programs are designed to encourage children to read by transporting them to exciting, real-life settings. The series introduces kids to interesting new people and places, explores social and cultural issues, and offers a close-up look at the world around them. Its dynamic, fast-paced, colorful animation and hip music entertain and reinforce these experiences, and help children embrace positive reading habits, skills and attitudes.

A good mystery sparks the imagination and encourages appreciation of the unexplained marvels of life. Ralph, a short order cook, rescues a kidnapped opera singer from Big Al and his gang of nasty rats.
