Reading is fun. We know that.

But convincing kids that reading is fun isn't always the easiest task -- but the folks at Mrs. P's Magical Library seem to have it figured out.

The website, created just over a year ago by actress Kathy Kinney and Portlanders Dana Plautz and Clay Graham -- provides a safe, ad-free place for kids to enjoy classic books and stories.

Mrs. P (lovingly portrayed by Kinney) reads stories, and encourages kids to read along. Her virtual storytimes are all available for free on the Mrs. P website, but can also be downloaded on iTunes for mobility. (Maybe an upcoming road trip, or a long flight? Holiday travel time is upon us, folks -- what better way to entertain your kids!)

Now, Mrs. P presents an all-new song from James Jesse Dwyer about reading & it's awesomeness. Plus, this fun song is available for free in the iTunes Kids TV store under "Mrs. P Presents." Check it out now, and be sure to share it with your kids:
