Learning to Read 'Between the Lions'

Between the Lions uses puppets, animation and music to teach four to seven-year-olds how to read. Theo, a star of the award-winning PBS series, drops by Morning Edition to explain the show's formula. The television show's executive producer says Lions could be endangered by a funding shortfall.
