The story of Fred Rogers is that of a genuine man who didn’t sell out his young audience to make money. He taught children to own their feelings and that quiet times could be great times. He also had lessons for us as educators and parents… that children don’t necessarily think like adults. We have to remember they are forming their world views. Sponges absorb what ever they are exposed to. What lessons are our children absorbing from us?

I mean, how can you not like a book about the gentle giant that helped shape children's educational television. So many children grew up knowing who Mr. Rogers was and the characters he created. The book goes through Fred's life from early childhood, high school, college and adulthood that made him into a successful household name. It's a book worth reading.
