 April 2nd, is International Children’s Book Day, and when I think of children’s books, I immediately slip into the land of C.S. Lewis’s Narnia or follow Madeleine L’Engle’s mystical path or, of course, enter the world of J.R.R. Tolkien’s, Lord of the Rings. One of the reasons these books are great literature is that they speak to ALL ages. These are among the stories that can intrigue a young person’s imagination and sense of adventure while planting question- seeds in the mind that will bloom when life experience catches up. Hopefully, the best stories will be read again and again after the child is an adult. One such book / story is Shel Silverstein’s, The Giving Tree – a children’s book that only a parent can fully appreciate!
But for the stories I hope I will never outgrow here is a link to my podcast for the piece called, A Good Read.
