Product Description:
In the tradition of The World According to Mister Rogers, a timeless collection of wisdom on life, friendship, individuality, creativity, collaboration, and more -- from Jim Henson and Friends
There are few things that evoke such a universal feeling of warmth and humor as the work of Jim Henson. In his own words, as well as those of some of his best-known characters like Kermit the Frog and Ernie, we’ll get a glimpse of the philosophy and humor that was so essential to Jim’s creations. We’ll also get a behind-the-scenes glimpse of the collaborative spirit of this gentle artistic genius from the people Jim knew, loved, and inspired.
This uplifting collection of quotes, stories, anecdotes, songs, and insights gives new life to Jim’s magical world. With chapters titled Dynamite Determination; Listen to Your Heart; Together We Can Do It; It Starts When We’re Kids; and A Part of Everything and Everyone, It’s Not Easy Being Green is by turns entertaining, inspiring, and laugh-out-loud funny, reminding us that every day counts. Readers young and old will cherish this collection.
Culled from The Jim Henson Company archives, program transcripts, personal letters, and interviews, along with some of Jim’s never-before-published writings, It’s Not Easy Being Green is a testament to the legacy of a man who changed the way we see the world.

Everyone knows the immortal words of Kermit the Frog: "Its not easy being green." This book, however, it takes us beyond that with more timeless life lessons from everyone's favorite man, Jim Henson, and those loveable Muppets. Though these quotes seem silly, they are from it. Filled with a great sense of poetry that only Henson possessed, we're taken back to a simpler time. This is an enjoyable read and novelty that no one should be without.

This book is full of everything I so loved about Jim Henson. His creativity, vulnerability, compassion and humor are excellent reminders of how to live with optimism and how that outlook always brings solutions. This is a must own book, and as a gift it will bring the best to your loved ones.

Great little book to keep in the car, at your desk, in your book bag, or nightstand. Easy to open it up, read a page or two, then continue in a great mood. Good times!

That's the best way to describe the philosophy of the Muppets and the work of Jim Henson. Zany, silly, goofy, but full of heart and an unending optimism. This book gives a peek at what he was trying to communicate about life using these flawed, but loveable characters.
Highly recommend.
