"For the first time, 75 songs from Mister Rogers' Neighborhood and The Children's Corner (the first show Fred Rogers performed on as a puppeteer) are collected in this charmingly illustrated treasury, sure to be cherished by new generations of children as well as the adults who grew up watching him. From funny to sweet, silly to sincere, the lyrics explore such universal topics as feelings, new siblings, everyday life, imagination, and more.

But most of all, he taught children that they are loved, just the way they are. Perfect for bedtime, sing-along, or quite time alone, this beautiful book of meaningful poetry is for every child--including the child inside every one of us"--,Front dust jacket flap
