This is a place to share greentexts and witness the confounding life of Anon. If you're new to the Greentext community, think of it as a sort of zoo with Anon as the main attraction.

Be warned:

If you find yourself getting angry (or god forbid, agreeing) with something Anon has said, you might be doing it wrong.

This doesn't really relate to what I said whatsoever, because I never said her books or pointless or that we should erase her. I also didn't even say you're not allowed to read to books to your kid. Just that its content isnt great, and perhaps there are much better books for kids to read, such as the ones she lifted from, like the Earthsea Cycle.

Your implication in the Hitler reference was that we should not appreciate art from horrible people.

I'm glad my points changed your mind so much that we now agree, for the most part. ;)

No, that wasn't my implication (not quite as strong as that, anyway), nor did you change my mind. I still think it would be better to be reading better art, made by better people. Doesn't mean I'm trying to, like, ban Harry Potter books.
