Fred Rogers Productions expands agreement with Simon & Schuster to include books inspired by Mister Rogers’ Neighborhood

Fred Rogers Productions is broadening its agreement with Simon & Schuster to include a range of books inspired by Mister Rogers’ Neighborhood.

The first title under the new multi-year deal will launch in fall 2027.

Simon & Schuster has been the publishing partner for Daniel Tiger’s Neighborhood, the animated spin-off of Mister Rogers’ Neighborhood, for the past 12 years.

“Simon & Schuster has been an exceptional partner since our first Daniel Tiger’s Neighborhood title was published in 2014,” said Katie Huber, Senior Director of Licensing at Fred Rogers Productions.

“We’re delighted to expand our collaboration with them for Mister Rogers’ Neighborhood and to work together to deliver even more ways for parents, teachers, and librarians to help children learn and grow from the enduring series created by Fred Rogers.”
