Episode description: Pete Seeger sings and tells his story song, based on an African folk tale, about a father and son who team up to save their town from a giant. Run-DMC provides a rap version of the song, along with an original rap about reading and books. Using music videos by Lionel Richie, Sting, Tears for Fears, and El DeBarge, LeVar shows how music can help tell a story. A ballet dancer and two animators also talk about how music inspires them and shapes their own art forms. [cc]
