Kindness and Wonder: Why Mister Rogers Matters Now More Than Ever

For over thirty years, Fred Rogers, a beloved fixture in American homes, spoke directly to children and their parents about the world’s wonders, worries, and self-acceptance. Dressed in his cardigan and sneakers, he offered a wholesome message of generosity and love that changed television and shaped a generation.

Pop culture aficionado Gavin Edwards reminds us of the indelible lessons conveyed by Mister Rogers—kindness, open-heartedness, thoughtfulness, curiosity, and compassion—and why they matter. Beautifully crafted and infused with Rogers’ gentle spirit, Kindness and Wonder features interviews with people touched by him, from Rita Moreno to Lynn Swann. It’s a love letter to this unforgettable cultural hero and his beautiful neighborhood.
