High 4. The classics as I remember them....
2011/11/28
形式:ペーパーバック
This anthology contains carefully-selected children's literature that has come down through many years. It begins with early translations of folk/fairy tales that we all know, but in their more authentic (not Disneyed) form. Yes, Disney sugar-coated the classics, but if movies like Shrek don't trouble your children, they'll be fine with most of these tales. The more recent selections come from early twentieth century authors such as Beatrix Potter and H.M. Barrie.
Several of my own personal favorites are there, and most of the works these editors selected are present in their entirety; my one disappointment is that this edition does not contain both books of "Little Women" but only the first -- which ends when Meg becomes engaged to John Brooke. Post 1960's readers are accustomed to having both parts together. This is my only reason for giving this anthology a high four rather than a full five. Granted, adding the second part of "Little Women" would add several hundred pages to this anthology, but I think it would be worth it. And, after all, the editors selected many other longer works in their entirety, such as "Treasure Island," "Peter Pan," and "Wind in the Willows."
I would recommend this anthology as something parents and grandparents could read to (or with)children as well as for students of children's literature (prospective teachers and librarians). Don't let the fact that it contains only half of one of my childhood favorites stop you from choosing this collection; that half just might leave readers wanting the whole thing.

Classics of Children's Literature (6th Edition)

This book is really interesting with all the different fairy tales and folk tales as heard by different people. Taking a Literature class and using this book has turned out to be very insightful. It is amazing how a lot of the Disney movies are based on the stories and tales in this book. Not all the stories in this book would be appropriate for children as they are a little gory, but for older people this is a great book to have on hand.
Great Book

This book has opened my eyes to the great original stories of many disney 'classics'. I was happy to get a bit of insight into the lives of the authors before reading their actual stories. This is an eye-opening book for anyone who is fed up with disney happy endings and would like to know the real, romantic stories which were turned into amateur slime by Disney...
