What happens
Cover to Cover is 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, then draw scenes as a portion of the book was read. Robbins would then encourage his viewers 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.
