A classic children's story I never read but wanted to give a go now after listening to excerpts on the Calm app. It's a cute story about positivity and imagination in the face of adversity, but some of the language and portrayals of minorty characters could be considered offensive to a modern reader.
Graphic: Child abuse, Classism, and Death of parent
Moderate: Racism and Colonisation

One of my favorites from childhood. Much more adventuresome and deep than the title lets on.

I think this book was great and I liked reading it. the perspective showed the emptions of the character so it really feels like you feel the same emotions. at first, I wasn't its biggest fan. I judged the book by its cover which is the first thing I did wrong when I picked it out. I read the back which made me even more interested. but when I started it, I wasn't that into it. I decided to continue reading even if it wasn't my type of book because I hate the idea of not finishing a book. I personally wasn't the biggest fan but its only because it isn't my style or genre that I prefer. so I don't want to discourage anyone from reading it because it was a great book but just not my favourite type.
