Production notes
Cooperation, understanding and thoughtfulness are qualities included in this study of personal relationships.
"The most important person in the whole wide world is you, and you hardly even know you!" These little segments assured us that we were okay just as we were.
This series of 66 shorts combined live action and animation.
Originally, the series was shown as interstitial segments on "Captain Kangaroo" on CBS. In 1976, Viacom syndicated the series. It ran on local stations as half-hour episodes consisting of five shorts, or as interstitial segments of locally children's shows.
Made possible by a grant from the U.S. Department of Health, Education and Welfare, Office of Child Development.
