This is a false dichotomy, isn't it?
No reason why kids can't be taught Shakespeare and read fantasy stories.
As for the claims of contemporary fiction being 'sensational'.....has the principal actually even read Shakespeare??? Shakespeare was a playwright and the master of sensationalism to put bums on the seats. Mistresses, ghosts, witches, suicides, assasinations, incest...you name it he employed it.
