SheilaZ Posted August 6, 2008 Share Posted August 6, 2008 For those of you who don't like them, is it that you prefer your kiddie lit to be didactic or instructive in some way? Oh heck no. I like my twaddle. I just couldn't handle the sugary sweetness. I couldn't read the one about the Peppers and How They Grew either. Waaaaaaayyyy to nice. I can pull off Winnie the Pooh but only because the boys think Pooh is so silly. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HSMom2One Posted August 6, 2008 Share Posted August 6, 2008 I loved the books when I was a child, so I bought them for my own children. Thinking back though, I think I found them most appealing because of the small size of the books and because of the art work. BP was a really great artist and the pictures are so darn cute! My dd has the whole collection and in reading them together we've noticed that there are several that we really love, but some that are either boring, or hard to understand in our day and our culture. We just skip over them and enjoy our favorites. Haven't seen the movie yet, but we plan to. Blessings, Lucinda Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mcconnellboys Posted August 7, 2008 Share Posted August 7, 2008 That's okay, LOL, we prefer Frog and Toad, Wind in the Willows, or Thornton Burgess books, ourselves. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
