Madigan, Tim
I'm Proud Of You : My Friendship With Fred Rogers

This book is a memoir that chronicles the friendship between Tim Madigan and Fred Rogers. Mister Rogers' concept of the good neighbor extended not only to the children who watched him on television, but also to the adults he shared his vision and exemplary character with. The book encompasses themes including Mister Rogers' impact on this region, the positive aspects of mentoring for men in regards to personal development, and the role of families and friendships in the development of children who are good neighbors.
