"Reading Rainbow" to return this weekend as an interactive streaming program: "I think it's been a long time coming"
CBSN
With a reboot of "Reading Rainbow," children's programming is about to get a lot more colorful.
This weekend, the classic television show — which went off the air more than a decade ago — returns as an interactive streaming program called "Reading Rainbow Live." CBS News' Vladimir Duthiers was invited to appear as a guest following the "CBS Mornings" announcement of the program.
The show may look and sound a bit different than it used to, but the message is always the same: Reading can take you anywhere and help you be anything. Now, that message will be delivered through music and by a diverse cast of young performers known as the Rainbows.

Seems that there is always a lot going on behind the walls of the White House where truth can often be stranger than fiction. But fiction can be pretty compelling, too. In the new novel "The First Gentleman" (to be published June 2 by Little, Brown & Co.), the commander in chief is a woman, and her husband is accused of murder. It's the third collaboration from best-selling author James Patterson and his co-writer, President Bill Clinton.
