I'm Proud of You: My Friendship with Fred Rogers Audiobook

" I absolutely loved this book! "

" This is a lovely book, insightful, not just about the amazing Fred Rogers, but also about the author, who was befriended and in the process, healed by Fred's amazing kindess and generosity of spirit. That shines through, as does the author's journalistic skill at evoking one of the true legends of the twentieth century. "

" Mr. Rogers should be sainted. This, however, does not make for exciting reading. I didn't get far with this book. "

" Moving and convicting a wonderful book. "

" A fabulous look into the man who shaped generations. Highly recommended for all people who need to see the power of kindness. "

" Even though I did enjoy this book once in a while I wondered if it was creepy. "

" After being given this book, I was a bit skeptical about how interesting a story about Fred (aka Mr.) Rogers would be. After finishing it, I not only enjoyed it, but found Fred Rogers to be strong, encouraging, and very real person. I highly recommend this book to EVERYONE. "

" It was so moving I read it with a towel by my side, tissues didn't do it. "

" I love Mister Rodgers, and it turns out, the real Mr. Rodgers was just as amazing. This has become one of my favorite books, and has truly changed me somewhere deep inside. "

" As most memoirs go it is a bit of a ramble. However, I did see through the life of the journalist to the fact that Mr. Rogers was truly an amazing man. Someday I will have to read a biography about him (Mr. Rogers). A man who understood the word charity (as in the true love of Christ). "

" I think it's great, but I'm biased. I wrote it. "

" A very encouraging look at an influential life. I just want to be like Mister Rogers. "

" Mister Rogers is a great role model. Everyone should read this book! "

" I grew to love and respect Mr. Rogers through his Neighborhood and what I read about him. This little book broadened my admiration. "

" This book reminded me of Tuesdays With Morrie. Very sweet. I had a lump in my throat for most of it and outright cried several times. "

" How cool would it have been to actually know Mr Rogers? There are very few people to touch so many children's lives as viewing Mr Rogers and his television show. This book explores a friendship between the author and "Fred" and his family. "

" I'm re-reading this classic. A lovely book about male mentorship and friendship, through shared experiences of grief, loss, recovery and hope. "

" After reading this book slowly, I found myself unable to set it down for the last 1/3 of the pages. The genuine truths and spiritual tone brought me to tears throughout the end of the book. It is a great story and brings the spirit and nature of a wonderful man. "
