annieb123's Review of Many Ways to Say I Love You (Revised)

by Fred Rogers

Fred Rogers spent his life learning about children and families. His honest wisdom continues to offer special reassurance and support to parents whose children are grown, to those raising young ones, and to children of all ages.

This inspiring collection of thoughts, observations, and anecdotes is drawn from Fred Rogers' lifework of communicating to children and about children. "Although children's 'outsides' may have changed a lot over the years, their inner needs have remained very much the same. No matter what lies ahead, children always need to know that they are loved and capable of loving."

Originally published on my blog: Nonstop Reader.

Many Ways to Say I Love You is a devotional book with quotes and sayings from Mister Rogers. Originally published in 2006, this reformatting and re-release from Hatchette is due out 3rd Sept 2019. It's 192 pages and will be available in hardcover and ebook formats.

Every page of this simple book brings another gentle observational quote from Mister Rogers. With so much divisiveness and hatred in the world currently, it's wonderful to be able to read a few of these quotes from Mister Rogers and just breathe. He was a wonderful accepting forgiving genuinely good man and this book reflects those values.

I really enjoyed re-reading this wonderful book and I'm glad to see it back in print for a new audience. His voice is sorely missed.

There are no extra illustrations with the simple texts. The book does include a short biography of Mister Rogers at the end as well as a short foreword from his wife, Joanne, at the beginning.

Five stars.

Disclosure: I received an ARC at no cost from the author/publisher for review purposes.
