+1 to that Harry. And let us emphasise that a lot of the old kids adventure stories are still after decades or even centuries more readworthy than all the current stuff hyped now - books aimed towards adult readership included. And far more educative.
The Chronicles of Pyrdain are IMHO a perfect example of that. Written in a way even young readers can mentally process and teaching a set of values which would make the world far a better place would more adults subscribe to them.
But hey, I'm just a disenchanted old-fashioned romantic (in the original meaning of that)
