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

5.0

Having grown up watching Mr. Rogers Neighborhood, the opportunity to go back into my childhood and learn more about this fascinating man was one I couldn’t pass up. From his wealthy beginnings, to the humble way he led his life, to the graciousness, patience and care he showed to every child he met, along with the ones he never personally met, Fred Rogers was an example of how to live a life dedicated to educating children. Listening to LeVar Burton’s narration added an additional element to Mr. Rogers story that enriched the story even further, as he was also an instrumental character in my childhood due to his work on Reading Rainbow. Definitely a recommended read for anyone who remembers Fred Rogers’ work.
