A Beautiful Day in the Neighborhood (Movie Tie-In) Reviews

4.0
“Really enjoyed Mr. Rogers as a kid. Read this with my son, he enjoyed it a lot and loved the colored pictures that went with each poem”
“I thought this would be more of Fred's story. I feel like it was more of a self help/ psychology of children. Very monotone.”
