Children’s Classics

So many of you are passionate about children’s literature. We’d love to tap into your expertise or simply allow you to share your opinions about what you like as recommendations for your children, or even what you enjoy for yourself as an adult from the world of children’s literature.

What’s considered a classic as far as children’s literature goes? Well, that’s up for interpretation, since children’s books go in and out of print more than adult literature that is decades old. But a classic work, regardless of target age, should be a book people have heard of. You may not have read it, but the name would probably spark some sort of “a-ha.”

Each month has a topic. Check out the previous topics below. Here’s the upcoming schedule:

August 11 — Adventure! (i.e. any adventure or suspense stories– any children’s reading level)
September 8 — Back to school books
October 13 — Re-reading a childhood favorite
November 10 — Celebrating the holidays
December 8 — Children’s books you love to give
