It focuses on six skills and mindsets that parents and educators can foster in kids--curiosity, creativity, collaboration, communication, perseverance, and empathy--by leading with a Mister Rogers anecdote, then connecting the logic behind what Mister Rogers did on his show to the latest science, followed by tips for parents and educators.

They''ve been shown to be ten times more predictive of long-term success than children''s academic records, and they benefit kids regardless of race, gender, or class.
