Storybreak

CBS Storybreak was a CBS network Saturday morning anthology TV series that was hosted by Bob Keeshan from March 30, 1985 until January 3, 1987, but reruns continued to air until 1998.

The episodes of the show were half-hour animated adaptations of children's books published at the time of airing (such as "How to Eat Fried Worms"). Other episodes included Dragon's Blood and Ratha's Creature.

Unique for an American television series, the series featured open captions captioned by The Caption Center for the hearing impaired during its 1993 reairing, instead of the usual closed captioning. In addition to being a convenience for the hearing-impaired, this also allowed those who could hear to read along with the story.
