Re-reading what you read as a child

📚 Discussion

Ever re-read a book you read as a kid?

I recently tried reading William Golding’s Lord of the Flies. Couldn’t get into it… but I didn’t like it first time round so maybe that’s why.

I didn’t though get the 50th anniversary copy of Stig of the Dump by Clive King. Wasn’t quite as I remembered (rose tinted glasses must have been ffoggy), but I did enjoy it.

Read any recently that you remember from childhood?
