The Good Neighbor: The Life and Work of Fred Rogers by Maxwell King

My rating: 5 of 5 stars


If you grew up in the 70's and 80's United States (like me) this man was most likely a big influence on your early childhood. I have fond memories of watching Mr. Rogers Neighborhood. Even now, as a grown up, I find myself humming several songs from the show (I like to take my time; I like you just the way you are; Won't you be my neighbor).

This was a wonderful indepth book, looking at the life of Fred Rogers and sharing parts of his life that was not seen by the public, who only knew him as Mr. Rogers. And the audio is read by LeVar Burton - which just adds to the nostalgia

I very much liked this book and recommend it hightly.
