À propos de cet audio
Fred Rogers (1928-2003) was an enormously influential figure in the history of television and in the lives of tens of millions of children. As the creator and star of Mister Rogers’ Neighborhood, he was a champion of compassion, equality, and kindness. Rogers was fiercely devoted to children and to taking their fears, concerns, and questions about the world seriously.
The Good Neighbor, the first full-length biography of Fred Rogers, tells the story of this utterly unique and enduring American icon. Drawing on original interviews, oral histories, and archival documents, Maxwell King traces Rogers’s personal, professional, and artistic life through decades of work, including a surprising decision to walk away from the show to make television for adults, only to return to the neighborhood with increasingly sophisticated episodes, written in collaboration with experts on childhood development. An engaging story, rich in detail, The Good Neighbor is the definitive portrait of a beloved figure, cherished by multiple generations.
PLEASE NOTE: When you purchase this title, the accompanying PDF will be available in your Audible Library along with the audio.

by the man himself. This book could’ve been half the length that it was as many Fred-isms were repeated over and over, just from the perspective of different people in his life. Very much enjoyed the narration. LeVar Burton has a great voice and delivery.
A bit repetitive

On a practical level, I had only heard of Mr. Rogers but didn't grow up with him (growing up in Canada I had Mr. Dressup and The Friendly Giant) and had no idea of how radical and insightful his approach to children's programming was, how significant his legacy and impact was/is on a young children. I am humbled by this gentle soul that shook a generation.
I did find the narration distracting. Even though I admire Levar Burton, I often found his narration didn't do the story justice.
