Cover to Cover (PBS program)
''Cover to Cover'' was an educational program broadcast on public television in the United States and Canada from the 1960s to the 1990s. Its host, John Robbins, would introduce young readers to one or two books, from which he would then draw scenes as a passage from the book was read. Robbins would then encourage the viewer to find the book in question and read the rest of the story. The program was also known by several other titles, always following the same general format.
==Format==
At the beginning of each segment, the genial Robbins, a former elementary school teacher, would introduce a book, generally aimed at readers aged nine to twelve, corresponding to grades 4, 5, and 6 in the United States. Robbins or another narrator would then read an episode from the book, while the camera would shift to film of Robbins illustrating a scene from the passage being read. Using colored pencils, Robbins would bring the story to life for the viewer; as the picture was completed, the passage being read would generally end with a cliffhanger. Robbins would then encourage the viewer to find the book at a library and read the rest of the story.
Some programs featured a single book, while others profiled two books, and two illustrations from shorter passages. Millions of schoolchildren were first exposed to great books, as well as art and illustration, through Robbins' work. Many of the books were Newbery Medal winners.〔American Library Association, "Newbery Medal and Honor Books, 1922–Present," http://www.ala.org/alsc/awardsgrants/bookmedia/newberymedal/newberyhonors/newberymedal〕 Among the books profiled over the years were: ''Little House in the Big Woods, Call It Courage, Misty of Chincoteague, Caddie Woodlawn, A Bear Called Paddington, The Witch of Blackbird Pond, Island of the Blue Dolphins, The Cricket in Times Square, A Wrinkle in Time, The Mouse and the Motorcycle, A Wizard of Earthsea, Sounder, The Toothpaste Millionaire, The Dark is Rising, Bridge to Terabithia'', and ''Tuck Everlasting''.
