Story
The daughter of slaves, Madam C.J. Walker was orphaned at seven, married at 14, and widowed at 20. She spent the better part of the next two decades laboring as a washerwoman for $1.50 a week. Then - with the discovery of a revolutionary hair care formula for Black women - everything changed. By her death in 1919, Walker managed to overcome astonishing odds: Building a storied beauty empire from the ground up that would be run by four generations of Walker women until its sale in 1985.

Story
It began as another newspaper assignment, a celebrity profile of the children's television icon. But in Fred Rogers, Texas journalist Tim Madigan found more than a fascinating subject. From their first meeting in 1995, at Rogers's invitation, the two became unlikely friends, a deep and abiding relationship that lasted until Rogers's death in 2003. In that time, Madigan found Rogers to be much more than the calm and compassionate personality of television. He was a person of unique human greatness who embodied love, compassion and wisdom his every waking moment.

It’s a beautiful day in THIS neighborhood!
In the Times through which we are living, this is an amazing experience! Before the concepts of trauma-informed care, adverse childhood experiences and child-centered anything, this man was pioneering a concept of childhood “edutainment” that was so pure, so sparkling, so true. The Esquire article is a winner. The interspersed Rogers reading Rogers and Rogers read by a sensitive professional reading was a treat. As a pediatrician and mom, I am enthusiastic and appreciative. As a former child, I am tearful, grateful, and prayerful.

comforting. I sobbed during the movie and Tom Hanks nailed the role. I love Tom Hanks and I love Fred Rogers. I have cried so much today with the movie and the book and I bought every book he ever wrote, his other movie and a biography. thank God for this man. good book, comforting voice. ok gotta go cry again. it's a narrator but there is also a fair amount of actual Fred Rogers talking. it was a little confusing at first but the narrator is speaking as if he is Fred Rogers- for the first hour of the book I thought he was just some person with their own perspective.

Words of wisdom no matter your age.
Mr. Rogers is the hero and role model we should all seek to become. His words and compassion are timeless, even if so simple in concept. Even his messages about how to treat children are super relatable and relevant to those of us without children and can help to strengthen our bonds and communication with others, since we are all still children inside. This is a well delivered book and is worth a listen. Anyone who doesn’t get something from this, may not be ready to listen and grow.

So weird
I finished because it was short, but the first section was so weird that it left me... creeped out? I think it was the writing and narration that so strangely idolized Mr. Rogers, but I also actually got tired of Mr. Rogers' morality when it was his writing. I'm a bad person I guess, but that's how it struck me. The second section of the book is basically an overview of child psychology.
I WANT to love Mr. Rogers, I really do, because we need more goodness in the world. But ever since I was a kid (I'm 43 now) he struck me as a mix of dorky and creepy.

Beautiful words that speak of kindness, love and forgiveness - words that never go out of fashion, and sadly needed more than ever in today's world.
