This audiobook didn't work for me - it was long and boring. If LeVar Burton hadn't done the narration, this would have been a DNR for me. It was repetitive, dry, and included uninteresting and irrelevant information about the creation of the television set, the development of television stations, and PBS. Certainly, these advances were important to Mr. Rogers' career, but this was overdone.
The writing was poor, and the character development was weak. It was a disappointment.
