Mister Rogers' Songbook Book

It is quotes from Mr. Rogers. If you watched him as a kid, then you already know most of what he says in this book. If you haven't watched Mr. Rogers' Neighborhood, Get over to YouTube and watch at least one episode! This book is meant primarily for adults who are parents and/or caretakers of young kids. So with that emphasis, there are a few quotes that you might not know from watching the program. One (of many) that I believe is actually from the program is a comment to the effect that he doesn't care for the term "disabled" (loud cheers!) and considers those people with bad attitudes such as selfishness or racism to be much more disabled than those with physical issues. He addresses parents, reassuring them that just as long as they do the best they can, they are doing great. I could have used that reminder when single parenting young kids and simultaneously attending grad school so I could have a career and raise the kids with some advantages! I'm glad I read it! Can't wait for the movie!
