It's Not Your Mother's Reading Rainbow

Bristow, VA, September 13, 2019 – Today, CALM Productions announced the literary video podcast show READ WITH CARYLEE set to premiere on Saturday, November 9, 2019. READ WITH CARYLEE is a community inspired literary show will introduce kids ages 3-9 to children's authors from Virginia, Washington, D.C, Maryland and West Virginia area. Much like Reading Rainbow of years past, the READ WITH CARYLEE, will bring the love of literature to children and give a peak behind the scenes, by allowing them to meet the authors. This show will evoke a joy of reading, helping children to interact with authors and display the hidden talent of theses authors who are all around our community.
This new podcast digital series, created by Carylee Carrington owner of CALM Productions in partnership with Buzz365Media, will debut on the Read With Carylee YouTube and Facebook page as well as on Buzz365 Media and Jirani TV.
READ WITH CARYLEE developed by Carylee Carrington, a mother and children’s book author, began to do author visits to schools and was delighted by the amazement of children who were so excited and inspired to meet an author.  Ms. Carrington, calls herself an “accidental author”; she has been writing from a young age, writing poetry, drama shorts and plays. She turned her writing from passion to necessity, when she sought to help her son adjust to public school. Before she knew it, she was on the road to being a children’s author. Ms. Carrington, is also a Board Member with The Prince William County Arts Council. In this new venture, Ms. Carrington hope continue to advocate for the arts and to bring a renewed love of reading to children all around.
Children will be an active part of the READ WITH CARYLEE show and as a live studio audience. As a part of the show we will highlight the achievements of a child audience member. We hope to foster creativity and excellence in our children. By embracing their achievements, it allows for them to develop their creativity can be very helpful in their future endeavors. As a community, it is imperative that we help our children to be the best and highest versions of who they were created to be.
READ WITH CARYLEE will be taped in Old Town Manassas, VA at Jirani Coffeehouse. Jirani Coffeehouse is a neighborhood hub and a center for arts and culture. Jirani is a welcoming space that many in the community love to frequent. This is ideal for READ WITH CARYLEE, as our aim is to be a source for the community.
