[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]PP again. I need to correct myself for confounding modern and real life. OP wants real world but not too modern. I honestly got confused because divorce in children's lit was an example of what was desired and addressing divorce seems modern to me.[/quote] I think real life doesn’t have to mean modern: divorce, death, economic hardship, racism, prejudice, crime, school life, farm life, historical figures and happenings. All of these issues were around and talked about with children and young adults 50 years ago. [/quote]
