thejazziestbean's review against another edition
I understand it was supposed to come from a children’s tv show host from back in the day but jesus every other word was some olden-day cereal box metaphor pertaining to children. I was seriously waiting for it to get better or be relatable in some mysterious way but i got to page 84/172… just the same “life is precious, protect the children from the hardness of life” etc etc.

Very cute book. An easy read. Basically a compilation of quotes from Mister Rogers himself. Some great inspiring words in here. I read this before bed and it made me feel sane.

The World According to Mister Rogers is a wonderful collection of quotes, song lyrics, and letters, all reflecting the wisdom and love of Fred Rogers. This little book could be used as a daily reflection text which would enrich each day with grounded and helpful thoughts and inspiration from Mister Rogers. The world would be better for it.

Whether we're a preschooler or a young teen, a graduating college senior or a retired person, we human beings all want to know that we're acceptable, that our being alive somehow makes a difference in the lives of others.
So glad I listened to this audiobook on my drive home. Crying in my car is far more acceptable than crying at work.
If you ever need a lift. If you're having a hard day/month/life, and you just need words of comfort and wisdom, I highly, highly, highly, recommend picking up this book. The audiobook is read by wonderful people like Lily Tomlin, Tyne Daly, John Lithgow, and the introduction is written and narrated by Joanne Rogers. There's clips of Fred Rogers' voice, and all of these thoughts are his.
They're wonderful, and incredibly soothing for the soul. I love this book so much.

Such a sweet book with lots of little gems. He was such a caring and compassionate person and had some great things to say. One of those books that will always be a "pick me up" when life wears you down.
