CHANNELING HER INNER SORCERESS

"Do you feel the enchantment in the air? ?? Happy Halloween from your favorite sorceress, Yennefer!"

When Mica asked Burton about his history with gaming, the proud father replied that he started playing video games when she was just a little girl. The cute duo played CD-ROM games and Lara Croft Tomb Raider.

Besides learning new forms of video games with his daughter, Burton, known for his remarkable story-telling voice, has been looking for ways to bring literacy enrichment to the public.
The "Reading Rainbow" star earlier planned to do a live-streamed version of telling stories amid the coronavirus pandemic. Reading aloud online is his way of helping families get through difficult times.
