Outcast of Redwall was a wild book to read as a kid, perhaps it was my first introduction to morally complex characters.

yeah, they're really fond of themes like death, grief, existensialism etc
I like it. Its good to instill emotional intelligence and awareness of the more depressing sides of life in children

No we've simply been on 4channel too long and read too many controversial books. Mrs. Donaldson was almost certainly just making a nice children's book...

Assuming the bare minimum age of 18, you would have been 7 when this book debuted, which is too old to be reading picture books, not to mention it being doubtful you were read a picture book immediately upon its release, rather than at least a year or two later when it became well-known enough for your parents to buy.

Actually, I correct myself. The book OP posted is a sequel from 2012, meaning there's not even a theoretical chance OP isn't underage.
