The World According to Mr. Rogers

For those who grew up with "Mister Rogers' Neighborhood" (and their parents), this adaptation will be a reminder of the quiet, positive message of Fred Rogers: Bad things happen, and some days are better than others, but, first and foremost, each of us is lovable as we are. Rogers's wife begins with some biographical comments, which are followed by a collection of anecdotes, speech and song excerpts, and affirmations. Some are brief recordings of Rogers; the remainder are presented by an all-star quartet of narrators who read with the tones of sincerity, conviction, and respect that were Fred Rogers's trademark.
