Mr. Rogers lived in a world of possibility, didn't he? In Making Friends (1987), he begins with an author's note: " One of life's greatest joys is the comfortable give-and-take of a good friendship. It is a wonderful feeling not only to have a good friend but to know how to be a good friend yourself." With photographs by Jim Judkis (His name is not on the cover.), Fred Rogers explains the basics of interpersonal interaction. It's a book for the young and for the old who will read it aloud to others. Sometimes, it's refreshing to look at life in a straight-forward, how-to way like this. If only reality were so simple.
