Based. Look up the Polgar sisters if you haven't. It may be possible to raise geniuses if you start early.

No, every person i see who glorifies this novel as peak children literature is an aimless wastrel

it's a book about a child that is destroyed by how horrible the world of adults is. no I don't think I will. it's tremendously blue-pilled.

what makes it blue-pilled is that it is average doomerism. the true redpill is that God is King and that's what I'm gonna teach my child, not this defeatism

These depressive stories containing suicides aren't meant for children (or teenagers) in general. Go with the King Arthur saga instead, or Astrid Lindgren if she doesn't like violence.

There are better British, Scandinavian, and German children's literature. I hope the French are ethnically cleansed in the future.
