[quote=Anonymous]I'd love to hear about why you'd like to explore the classics with your child. Is it because you'd like to revisit books you loved as a child? Is it because you think they have higher literary value than books produced today? and ... I guess I'd also ask, how often do you reach for a classic when you're having your own (adult) reading time? I do think there's a time and a place for classics. I also think that there is an absolute goldmine of modern, beautifully written books that can suit almost any taste, minus the insidious racism and misogyny of books from the past. If you'd like more modern recommendations, it would help to know what your motivation/interests are. [/quote]
