Susie Dent and I are kindred spirits. I love words almost (maybe not quite) as much as she does, and I wish I were as knowledgeable about them as she is. I had to pre-order her new children's book for my students to bring some new joyful language into the classroom.

@lorywidmerhess Same here!
@yatil Thank you!
@Rackuur @neilhimself Perhaps. I just didn’t discover them. Anyway, I found Astrid Lindgren, Michael Ende, C.S. Lewis, Ursula K Le Guin and others early.
@Rackuur @neilhimself I grew up in Denmark and (unfortunately) only discovered her books as an adult. I don’t think I’ll ever get too old to enjoy them, but reading tastes are of course subjective. The best children’s book are for everyone!
@podperson @neilhimself True. I loved Famous Five as a child, and there are definitely issues with those too when we look at them now. The quote is from DWJ’s talk: A TALK ABOUT RULES. It’s about the goalposts for children’s books (and adult fantasy) moving all the time, and how she keeps experimenting, while sticking to a very few principles, the first of which is in above quote. Highly recommend reading the whole thing.
@daniel Thanks! I used a Powerpoint template because Powerpoint happened to be open on my computer… Happy with the result.
