The Good Story Gremlin?
Oct. 2nd, 2010 08:33 amThen there's the opposite to the Suck Fairy, which I lack a cutsey name for: that personage that goes in children's books I thought were boring as a kid and made them good. Winnie the Pooh is the series that comes immediately to mind; I found them bland as a kid and adored them now. And I've been meaning to reread Watership Down one of these days, which I read as a kid (because they shelved it with the kids books, that's why!), and which I'm told is much better.
What about you? Kids' books that are better now?
