HappyGrace Posted June 28, 2013 Share Posted June 28, 2013 Are the notes in these veering toward an older audience? Or a more liberal type audience? The Uncle Tom's Cabin one seemed in the description to crow about how the commentary addresses how the book has had an effect on minority groups today, like gays, and gender issues, and it talked about the sexuality between Uncle Tom and Little Eva, etc. I really don't want a debate-just wondering if this would be ok for a conservative family. Thanks :) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kiwik Posted June 28, 2013 Share Posted June 28, 2013 Doesn't sound that suitable for the age I was when I read Uncle Tom's cabin. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Violet Crown Posted June 29, 2013 Share Posted June 29, 2013 Look out for the old Educator Classic Library series. Good annotations at an appropriate level. Usually a dollar or two per. http://www.valerieslivingbooks.info/classics.htm Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Meriwether Posted June 29, 2013 Share Posted June 29, 2013 We have several from the whole story series. Like this one: http://www.amazon.com/The-Jungle-Books-Whole-Story/dp/0670867977/ref=sr_1_16?ie=UTF8&qid=1372500157&sr=8-16&keywords=whole+story+series I don't know if they will serve, though.
