Simple Faith of Mr Rogers Review

 

The Simple Faith of Mr Rogers by Amy Hollingsworth is a Christian non-fiction biography/ autobiography of the friendship of Fred Rogers and the author with a particular look at the effect of Mr Rogers faith on Hollingsworth.

 

I gave this book 4.5 out of 5 stars. It was a lovely book. Even though this didn’t turn out to be a biography of Mr Rogers with a focus on his faith as I initially thought it would be, I still found myself thoroughly enjoying it for what it is. I liked seeing Mr Rogers through the eyes of a friend and getting a look at the influence he had particularly in relation to his faith.

The writing style is comforting, open and friendly. I loved the anecdotes and powerful life lessons that Hollingsworth learned through her friendship with Mr Rogers. This was a quick and fascinating read that was unexpectedly powerful on a personal level.
