Let's not forget MacBeth!! Kindof the most famous. My opinion is to simply let children read what interests them and discuss it. I agree that some things probably shouldn't be read by children. I recall reading Helter Skelter at 16...wish I had waited. In my Dad's time, comic books were melting the minds of children and my grandfather insisted my Dad could not have any comic books. Turns out he had the largest collection in the neighborhood.
