Qubo, the TV and online entertainment service for children, signed a deal with children’s publishing and media company Scholastic to license “Sammy’s Story Shop.” The anthology series, produced by Scholastic’s Weston Woods Studio, boasts a library of animated video adaptations of classic children’s books.

Qubo has licensed 26 episodes of the series to begin airing on the qubo digital channel in second quarter of 2008. “Sammy’s Story Shop” brings best-selling and award-winning children’s books to life, including such titles as Snowy Day, Make Way For Ducklings, Harold and the Purple Crayon, Tikki Tikki Tembo, and The Napping House, among many others. Each episode opens with an animated introduction by Sammy, the Story-Chef extraordinaire.

“We are delighted to present this wonderful Weston Woods series and hope it will inspire parents to introduce their favorite childhood books to their children,” says Rick Rodriguez, president and general manager, qubo. “‘Sammy’s Story Shop’ hits the bull’s eye in qubo’s mission to promote literacy and entertain children while nurturing a love of reading.“
