children?

This is the message as the crawl holds it, before anything here touched it. What the conversation shows has been through ingest: transfer encodings decoded, attachments dropped, quote markers repaired, and the archiver’s ? resolved into quotation marks and dashes. Those repairs are judgements and some of them are wrong, which is what this page is for. Email addresses are obscured here as they are everywhere else on the site, so it is before our repairs rather than byte for byte.

Good point! I also discovered many of my favorite books at an early=20
age...Lord of the Rings at age 8, A Wrinkle in Time at age 7 or 8, Kipling=20
shortly afterward, and so on.

Great literature IS ageless/timeless! Maybe, then, we should hope that all=20
the great novels--past and present--survive into the future as children's=20
lit!

Daniel
