Really looking forward to reading this biography. Thank you for making me aware of it. Rogers was most certainly a man of great depth. As I watched several vintage clips of his interactions with both children and animals (so beautiful), I was transported to a whole new level of admiration and respect for Fred Rogers.

Learning about all the other aspects of his life was fascinating and inspiring.

I was a little outside his target audience in age, so I'm not sure how much we watched it as kids. Still, I have a real appreciation for Mister Rogers' insistence on not dumbing down television content for children. It is amazing to look back and see him discussing death, and assassination, and addressing racial equality (and Renaissance Womanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04042573630039646414noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1874262419752354657.post-73207399218000624602019-12-05T14:51:41.519-06:002019-12-05T14:51:41.519-06:00What you mention about the entertaining aspect of ...What you mention about the entertaining aspect of Mister Rogers is one of the interesting things about him. He never really "acted" or worried about being entertaining. Mister Rogers was simply true to who he was and what he hoped to communicate. Everyone says he was the same person on and off the stage.

His theme song plays through my mind frequently. After all, I heard it pretty often when our children were young.

I wouldn't be surprised that she learned a lot about empathy from watching Mr. Rogers as she really took it to heart. People and animals find themselves surrounded by a big invisible Hug when my daughter reaches out to them. We need more people like my DD and Mr. Rogers.
