Literally a book full of snippets of letters sent to Mr Rogers as well as snippets of his responses and even just him talking to us about his thoughts on questions asked. I watched Mr. Rogers as a child and when my girls were little we tried to watch it but couldn't really find it on tv. Then when they were 6 they started watching Daniel Tiger.
Anyway, I really enjoyed this. And, in reading his responses and thoughts I felt as if I were hearing his voice. I truly wish I had found this book when my girls were toddlers. His words and advice would have helped me tremendously. That said, although my girls are teenagers now I feel as though his words have helped me even now.
Even if you are not looking for advice I think this is a great pallet cleanser of sorts. It makes you smile.

I'm not a huge fan of the time hops. Other than that, everything is good.

I wish I had read the books before watching the show. I was expecting this to be all about Belly pining over Conrad but it's not. Not really. Not until the end anyway. The book also leaves me to wonder about the tv adaptation. But, I'm not a writer or producer so what do I know.

Anyway, good read. Quick read.

I found this on our “lending library” shelf at work thinking my 5th grade nephew might want to read it. I read it so we can talk about it later.
I am glad I read it first. Mostly because I found it interesting. Partly because I found It does get a little graphic when describing the head wound and other parts but not so much that I wouldn't let my 10 year old nephew read it.
This was an interesting read. I'm not a fan of “time hop” style writing but this is different. The author follows a timeline and just tells the story from different perspectives. (Not sure I'm explaining this right)
April 14th... story from Booth, switch to Lincoln, switch back to booth, and so on.
Anyway. I'm excited to see what my nephew thinks.
