A programme for children at home.
This week you can see boats of all shapes and sizes. On Wednesday there will be people shooting the rapids in canoes, and on Thursday a very special type of boat, called a junk. Also the storyteller-this week Aline Gunn-will tell you a story about a river. But there are other things to see too-some bears fishing, lots of chimney-pots, and a cherry orchard. There is also another look at the apple advertisement. The presenters are Beryl Roques and Rick Jones, the Canadian with the guitar, and the scripts are written by Joanne Symons.
