Hang on, how would this work? Would my younger self see highlighted quotes of importance? Or immediately understand the message through the story morals? If my younger self is expected to understand information about my future without any kind of supernatural aid, it would be pointless
Depends on what age me I needed to transmit to. Grade school: The Castle in the Attic or Indian in the Cupboard series. Middle school: Steven King and Tolken. High School: Everything Douglas Adams. College: I only read textbooks
And brave new world. Reality is a mix of both depending on where you start, are and go
Even if I read the book How It Is Going to Happen Here, I doubt that I could have done much about it.
If it needs to be my high school years pretty much anything Stephen King. I remember reading “The Stand” and “It” in high school so those would be my best bet.
Leaning towards “It”. When it gets to THAT part in the caves with the kids I’ll say something like:
“Trust me, what I have to say will be less traumatic than what Mr. King spat out in some weird cocaine high.. listen..”
