I want to take my time with a review for this one. I'll start with this. I didn't really know what I was going to read. I only picked this up on a recommendation from PlanWithIlysse. This is a book I am very glad that I picked up to read. I would love to read more books similar to this one.
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.
Not really sure why it took me so long to read this. This story was a fun little read.
