Why You Should Read Children's Books, Even Though You Are So Old and Wise by Katherine Rundell
5.0
Oh, if I quoted the bits of this book which sung in my heart - I would be quoting the book in its entirety.
Yes, I am prejudiced. I am a children's librarian who unashamedly reads children's books. Sometimes, in preference to adult books.
But, this quote is fabulous:
Ignore those who would call it mindless escapism: it's not escapism: it is findism. Children's books are not a hiding place, they are a seeking place.
