单选题
Most parents, I suppose, have had the experience of reading a bedtime story to their children. And they must have
41
how difficult it is to write a
42
children"s book. Either the author has aimed too
43
, so that the children can"t follow what is in his (or more often, her) story,
44
the story seems to be talking to the readers.
The best children"s books are
45
very difficult nor very simple, and satisfy both the
46
who hears the story and the adult who
47
it. Unfortunately, there are in fact
48
books like this,
49
the problem of finding the right bedtime story is not
50
to solve.
This may be why many of books regarded as
51
of children"s literature were in fact written for
52
. "Alice"s Adventure in Wonderland" is perhaps the most
53
of this.
Children, left for themselves, often
54
the worst possible interest in literature. Just leave a child in bookshop or
55
and he will
56
willingly choose the books written in an imaginative way, or have a look at most children"s comics, full of the stories and jokes which are the
57
of teachers and right-thinking parents.
Perhaps we parents should stop trying to brainwash children into
58
our taste in literature. After all children and adults are so
59
that we parents should not expect that they will enjoy the
60
books. So I suppose we"ll just have to compromise over that bedtime story.
