Picture Pages was a
children's
educational television program with
Bill Cosby. You could just watch it on the
tv or participate along with
Bill Cosby in a Picture Pages book. I think you sent away for the book. He'd start each episode with "
Well there you are and here I am" and he'd write in the larger version of the book with "
Mortimer Icobod Marker". It made a dee-dee-dee-dee-dee sound when he wrote. You'd learn about things like
shapes and
sizes,
numbers and
words and
letters,
animals and
colors, what is different and so much more.
The
theme song went something like:
"Picture Pages, Picture Pages,
Time to get your Picture Pages,
Time to get your crayons and your pencils".
The
closing song went something like:
"You can play with Picture Pages,
FIll your day with Picture Pages,
'Till
Bill Cosby does another Picture Page with you!"
