Mr. Rogers Poetry Books

These books were fun to go through because our son, who is now in his early forties, was a great fan of Mr. Rogers's PBS TV show. I remember once when he was very small, his grandmother visited from Florida. 
    He asked her, "Can I go to Westwood?" the fictitious town of Mr. Rogers' Neighborhood.
    She said, "Sure. Where's that?"
    "It's where Mr. Rogers lives."

Now I have the opportunity to share these new books with our son's small children along with our other grandchildren. The artwork is bright and colorful. And since I already know the songs, it's easy to sing along with the words on each page. The kids also recognize some of the same things they see now on Daniel Tiger as we go through the pages of these two new books.
