![]() ![]() In a few years, we will happily sit down and read the original of an already much-loved (and familiar) tale. Since we have seen a stage version, two different movies, and read another abridged version. His first version was in kindergarten: an Easy Reader Classic he read himself. ![]() For example, my son loves the story of Treasure Island. The ultimate goal is, of course, to read the originals that are waiting for them, but they can still enjoy many of the stories. I do disagree with you on one point: we do read abridged versions of many books while we are waiting for my kids-aged 6 & 8-to be old enough for some of the original versions. I have also been collecting hard-cover, beautifully-illustrated editions of children's classics and found your site while researching an edition of Pinocchio (the one you also recommend) that I have from the library. I have ordered the Inga Moore edition as well as the Peter Pan you recommend and am so excited to get them in my hands! My daughter and I have been looking at the illustrations online and we can't wait to start it. ![]()
