This was a very comprehensive bio. I never really saw this series but he seems to have been a very nice man who cared about children. Great narration!

My second post to #ThinkPositiveBePositive.
Going through my library and this caught my attention...
@Alwaysbeenaloverofbooks, I can post twice, right?? I mean, without being invited again.
Remembering Fred Rogers on the twentieth anniversary of his passing. He was such an integral part of my childhood - one of my first teachers. It‘s because of public television like Mister Rogers‘ Neighborhood, Sesame Street, and Reading Rainbow that I became a voracious reader.
Thank you, Mister Rogers, for creating a space safe for children to learn and imagine. It‘s you we like.
I loved this 2018 documentary so much. Really inspiring. I‘d like to try the tagged biography sometime.

Stopped at a second Dollar Tree and got these
I loved Mr. Rogers growing up, but this was too slow and uneventful for me. He was a rich, shy child and I felt that could have been summed up in a chapter as opposed to dragging it out.
Does it count if you‘re a 43-year old child who celebrated with a B&N gift card spree, a few episodes of Gilmore Girls, and a bowl of hot lentil soup on a cold winter‘s day?

My book club picked this book for November (still catching up on my reviews...), and I really enjoyed discovering Fred Rogers, his childhood, his vision for TV programs intended for children, and how his concept evolved over time. Some people feel like there wasn't much details in this book about his private life, but I felt it was enough, I didn't need to know more personal things.
An in depth look at one of the most revered public figures of our time, this book did not disappoint! I learned so many things about how Mister Rogers developed his child psychology approach to television, became a Presbyterian minister, remained 143lbs for most of his adult life! 😁 If you have fond memories of the Neighborhood of Make-Believe, this is not to be missed! #bookspin @TheAromaofBooks
