Re: Reasonably good list. Stephen Send a noteboard - 24/05/2011 05:39:17 PM
I couldn't stand a few of those books at that age though.

Which ones?


His Dark Materials, Chronicles of Narnia, Tom Sawyer. I found them dreary.

And like Tom said, now that i think of it, nearly everything fron that list which I have read, I read aged 7-9.

Pretty good, but I'd like to see a bit more hard sci-fi in there. HyogaRott - 24/05/2011 01:48:57 PM 686 Views

Some of our Franco-Belgian BDs certainly can stand next to these books. If not too many. Legolas - 24/05/2011 10:49:04 PM 730 Views
You don't know of any French-language books for that age? What about Le Petit Prince? Tom - 24/05/2011 11:59:37 PM 647 Views

I did forget that one, but I tend to think of it more as an ageless book than a children's book. Legolas - 25/05/2011 07:48:09 PM 635 Views

I think most "reading" children will have read those books before age 11. Tom - 24/05/2011 02:22:49 PM 642 Views

As far as unforgiveable omissions go, Lindgren comes to mind, as does Ende. Legolas - 24/05/2011 10:36:49 PM 744 Views
I agree with Tom, I think. Panorphaeon - 25/05/2011 06:45:16 AM 752 Views
I couldn't "make" my 9-year-old read anything he didn't want to Two Wongs - 27/05/2011 03:15:46 PM 738 Views
