Re: Books for seven-year olds?

I wouldn't give 'The Story-Teller' to a child - Saki is very much adult stuff. It just shows very well, I think, how children react to most 'improving' books. ('The Toys of Peace' is another very telling blow at politically correct treatment of children, though it dates back to pre-WW1).

I will side with the good guys so long as they aren't goody-goody!
