I'm a big nerd and I've read a lot of books of all different kinds, and I'm an English teacher.

Tell me what you like or what you're looking for and I'll recommend something I think is good

Also, fun history fact, this comm used to be called c/books until I started posting poetry on main every day in protest of there not being a literature comm. Direct action gets the goods comrades

    I'm interested in bedtime stories to read to 0-6 year olds, not theory. But also YA fiction for kids who startend reading on their own. Thanks comrade!

      Your kid that is starting to read on their own might like Gregor the Overlander! The way it describes poverty was spot on for a kids book and had some nice messages.

      Its about a boy, Gregor, who finds a way to this underground realm where there are giant talking animals and humans whove adapted to the environment. Its by the same author who wrote the hunger games

      Might be too advanced now that I'm thinking about it, I don't interact with kids often so I'm not sure if it would be an appropriate reading level but could make a fun family reading thing

      When they're a old enough to handle the heavier themes in the book, Red Rosa might be a good choice.
