Pass on timeless stories and instill virtue and character in young Americans with the “Classic Children’s Literature” course DVD box set.
Right now, there is a systematic purge of classic literature happening in schools and throughout our society.
These cancellations rob our young of classic tales of adventure and friendship. Even more critical, this purge will leave them ignorant of timeless truths about the world and how best to live.
Unlike the stories read in most of today’s schools, great children’s literature delights the reader. Yet books like these are rare and hard to write. Sadly, we often see the best of them revised, ignored, or even “canceled.”
One reason for this is a misunderstanding of how education works.
It is common today to think that education is something done to children. As a result, today’s popular books are often preachy and boring. They regularly provide distorted views of reality, and in the worst cases, they can do real harm.
The recovery of the right kind of children’s literature is essential to the preservation of self-government. The reason? It helps form young people’s understanding of the world and the right way to live.
