The many emotions experienced by humans are explored in Reading Rainbow: Feelings, as LeVar Burton discusses feelings as depicted in many literary works. Young viewers travel with Burton throughout Central Park as he talks about happiness, sadness, fear, and many other familiar feelings. The featured book, Feelings, was written by Aliki, and the show's young reviewers analyze Loudmouth George and the Sixth Grade Bully by Nancy Carlson, Koko's Kitten by Dr. Francine Patterson, and Honey, I Love and other Love Poems by Eloise Greenfield.
