Mister Rogers Talks about Death

Season 11 Episode 1 | 3m 59s

In this classic program, Mister Rogers talks about his dog who died when he was a young boy and how sad he felt, especially when they had to bury her. He helps us talk openly and honestly about the sad feelings we all have when something or someone we love dies. And he sings a song that reminds us that "the very same people who are sad sometimes, are the very same people who are glad sometimes."
