As a child, I was not a particular fan of Mr. Rogers, though I watched his show regularly. That came when I had kids of my own. While I don't share his theology, I often share his philosophy. Treating others with care, kindness, and respect goes so far in developing good relationships, even beyond what it does for child development.

The early part of the book covers quite a bit of Rogers' education in music and child development, both of which were interesting. It's refreshing that his very wealthy family (of origin, as well as his family/household as an adult) generally used their considerable wealth and power for good.

I might rate this 3.5 overall. In the first half of the book, I might have rated it 4. However, a better editing should have been done so that we weren't hearing the same stories over and over and over again.
