I've reread all three of them. There's a lot in these books, I find. I didn't like the film though.
I think that although the protagonists are kids, not even teenagers, Pullman speaks to a wider audience. Only adults who experienced certain things can understand the depth of some of the feelings "mentioned" in the books.
