Magic Wand Speak & Learn

Produced by Texas Instruments, the Magic Wand Reader (introduced in 1982 as the Magic Wand Speaking Reader^[1]) had a hand held "wand" that one would slide over the "Talking Tracks" to read along with educational books.
Bill Cosby was initially a spokesman for this device.
