Won't You Be My Neighbor by the late Fred Rogers introduces young readers to the lyrics to the opening song on Mr. Rogers's Neighborhood. Mr. Rogers is a childhood staple for the past few decades and this gives adults the opportunity to share the beloved Mr. Rogers during story time. Who doesn't love the message of being a good neighbor and spreading some kindness to the people that you meet.

The formatting did not come through properly on my kindle, with pages being both out of order and turned sideways, so it was very hard to actually read in order, but it was obvious the text is the words to Mr. Rogers opening song and the illustrations are charming. This will appeal to young and old alike, and will bring a sense of bittersweet nostalgia to those of my generation who grew up watching Mr. Rogers.

What a great way to introduce my grandson to Mr Rogers. I would not necessarily call this a poetry book. But it is bright, colorful and wonderful.

With illustrations that look remarkably similar to Mr. Rogers and his Neighborhood, this book gently shares the lyrics of the opening song and encourage us all to be neighbors.

The Fred Rogers nostalgia that has crept up in the past few years stays strong with this lovely board book. As an illustrated companion to the hit song "Won't You Be My Neighbor," this book will be a hit for kids and their parents. The illustrator perfectly captures the whimsical and inclusive quality of the neighborhood.
