Customer Reviews

Excellent, Honest, Quick Reference

My husband and I use this book all the time to get some perspective on issues we are dealing with. It is gently written and simple to understand with some great ideas on what to try in different situations. I've actually had my husband call me up on the phone and ask me to look something up in this book for him. Highly reccommended!!!!!

I love Mr.Rogers!

This book is my favorite parenting book--it has the best advice in clear, simple terms and it's easy to find the information you need. Well worth the money!

Read it from the library, had to buy the book.

This is how I want my children to be raised. Mr. Rogers is more than a cultural icon, he's a man who has though long and hard about what it's like to be a little person in a big person's world. What a wonderful theory for guiding a youngster through life. I hope I can live up to Mr. Roger's model of how to behave as a parent and in life. -Sarah

Profound Parenting

While, as a youth, I often panned Mister Rogers, as an adult, I find him inspiring. This book is filled with simple, practical information that can have a profound effect on the way you parent your children and the way you parent yourself.

Simply Wonderful

Mister Rogers is absolutely wonderful! This book is short, to-the-point, and covers a spectrum of topics. All topics are covered in 3-4 pages. His concepts come down to the basic needs of a child, and any parent from any background can use his techniques when upbringing children. Mister Rogers' valuable expertise in children should be shared with every parent. After reading this, I have decided to give this book as part of my baby-shower gifts to new parents. THIS BOOK IS A GEM!
