The Hobbit

Is it dumb to read (classic) kids books you never read as a child as an adult?

>> No.16401956

It's a thin line. The answer is probably yes, but who cares.

>> No.16401993

>>16401956
Are there any here that are worth reading? Maybe Narnia, The Golden Compass/His Dark Materials?

>> No.16402027

>>16401062
If you read the source text carefully, you'll see that hobbits are actually brown-skinned relict aboriginals, not self-inserted English squires.

I'd say that stuff like The Wind in the Willows is enjoyable at any age.

Not YA but stuff like The Wizard of Oz or Pinocchio, anything Disney would have made a film of.
