New Mom...

The advice is reassuring and gives me the courage to learn more about the ideas proposed.

Excellent advice and empathy

Wonderful way to remain mindful while interacting with your children or the children of others. Also a great reminder to love yourself for who you are.

Wisdom

Great book! I cried several times while his words healed my soul, so many things about childhood resonated. This is a great reading if you haven't healed childhood traumas or if you are new parent, or a parent...period! His voice is calming and the pace allows you to absorb the teachings, slow but sure. I will listen again!

Mr Rogers 101

This is great wisdom and guiding ideas from Mr Rogers. Applyong his motivation will make anyone a better parent, a better person.

unexpected insights

More a collection of quotations and adventures anecdotes than I realized. Soothing to listen to. More parenting related than I thought.

So motivating and empathetic

this story makes me want to be a better parent. it reminds me of the love and logic series and I found many correlations between them. this was an excellent summary of Mr. Rogers' studies in child psychology and what we can do to help children grow in a healthy, loving, supportive environment.

I am special

It’s so good to hear him read it. It’s all simple stuff, but life is so simple and we complicate it. It’s soothing and enlightening.

I didn't know this was about raising children

I didn't know this was about raising children, and I personally have none to raise. However, the wisdom in Mr. Rogers' words about what we all need as we grow and how we relate to emotions and limitations in life is irreplaceable. Every person can benefit from this book by learning about how we can better care for ourselves, not just children

Do you want to know how to raise your kid?

It's a reminder of the important of our feelings, I know it talks about Kids but it made me cry. It has the answer to your questions and examples of phrases. It's short but powerful.
