Featuring the voices of John Lithgow, Whoopi Goldberg, and Jerry Nelson (from the Muppets), with a little snippet of Jim Henson's voice, too. All people I love dearly.

But the story itself kind of went in one ear and out the other. There were some lovely bits that just didn't stick, which was frustrating. Maybe I need to read the hardback and see if I appreciate it more.

Needs some editing. Quotes like "I believe life is basically growth" don't really need to be included, mostly because that is not life, but cancer, and the fraggles are more eloquent.

This was a good collection of quotes not just from Jim Henson, but his family, co-workers, and through Kermit himself about Jim.

The foreward mentions that this book collects various quotes from different sources and interviews so it was nice to read some for the first time. A lot of great and inspirational thoughts from a man that I think embodied them well and contributed to others in his immediate circle and have then passed it forward

A delightful quick read that includes numerous quotes from Jim Henson, his coworkers in his muppet business and many muppets themselves, including, but not limited to favorites such as Kermit the frog, Ernie and Bert and even a few Fraggles. These quotes tell a wonderful tale about a man who truly loved his work in creating timeless characters that we all know and love so dearly. A great pick-me-up read.
