However, I really don't read books with children main characters very often any more.carolhttps://carolsnotebook.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2372511622978085955.post-3755954842256654292018-11-10T14:02:35.276+00:002018-11-10T14:02:35.276+00:00Glad you enjoyed this classic, I read it many year...Glad you enjoyed this classic, I read it many years ago in school.The Bookwormhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10217390642323530030noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2372511622978085955.post-74869805000154691102018-11-07T13:53:13.797+00:002018-11-07T13:53:13.797+00:00Love when the classics stand the test of time.

I agree<br />with you and Kelly for the choice<br />of an original edition. And I will<br />keep in mind what you said about<br />the language, bigotry and casual<br />sexism.<br />And I will be very interested to<br />read Kelly's review.<br />Ravennightwingsravenhttp://www.nightwingsraven.wordpress.com/noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2372511622978085955.post-45183642239995982012018-11-06T16:10:01.890+00:002018-11-06T16:10:01.890+00:00So glad you found it enjoyable.

I, too, read an original version since I find it very irritating when editors feel they have to "protect" readers by updating books in an attempt to be PC and non-offensive. As you noted, it was the language and thinking of the time.Kellyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00859017153454691633noreply@blogger.com
