Kids laughed when I said I'd write a funny book for children. Well they're not laughing now.

Adventures of Huckleberry Finn by Mark Twain
Adventures of Huckleberry Finn
by Mark Twain | Buy this book
Somehow it's thought of as a fluffy book for children, but I don't recall anyone getting tarred and feathered in any of Enid Blyton's oeuvre.

huw7777 (Maesteg)

As an English teacher I've read a lot of books, but have got into a bit of a rut reading mostly non-fiction, and would like to be put in a position where I have to read something that I wouldn't normally. I do a bit of writing as well and it could help. I also like poetry and running, but not usually at the same time.

This has so much depth and meaning. Since I learned about Mary Shelley and her troubled life I have found the book so moving - it describes her own trauma.
