An audiobook about Mr. Rogers read by LeVar Burton was the most soothing, peaceful experience. PBS Forever!

I love the man and I definitely learned some interesting things from this book, but I think the fact that he led a quiet and private life left too much space to fill and the author didn't always find great material to fill that space. Some facts and anecdotes were even brought up multiple times. Still a very nice tribute to a very nice man.

I'd like to give 5 stars for Mr. Rogers himself, but I have to give 3 stars for the writing style and pacing of this book. I think I would have liked it better if I hadn't seen the documentary first, which I enjoyed much more. The book is a bit long-winded and repetitive, but there is still a lot to learn from Mr. Rogers' life and ministry.

inspiring reflective medium-paced

I love this book.
Apparently I read it in 2019 and forgot, but hearing these stories again via LeVar Burton was great.

A really nice uplifting story!
