I have been looking for a pretty hardcover on Book Outlet and Better World Books, so I will have a physical copy to read from every year. 📚<br /><br />I need to read the Mr. Rogers book. I haven't seen the movie yet. I read another book about his activism a couple of years ago. I really enjoyed it. 🚞La La in the Libraryhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18253014225202985934noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-32315311.post-89776359882943001522018-12-06T15:58:18.178-08:002018-12-06T15:58:18.178-08:00Right?
