Ask HN: What are you reading to your kids?

jopizio · 5 points · 6 comments · 9小时前

I was inspired by the other thread I saw today about books for adults. For those with young children, what are you reading to them these days? Any good science and technology books appropriate for age 5 or 6? Or other non-fiction? I can strongly recommend "Mushrooms and Company" (https://greystonebooks.com/products/mushrooms-and-company). My five year old daughter and I really enjoyed it, and now I'm personally very interested in fungi as a result.

Greek Mythology (PG-3 version), God bless Sir Fry for his books. They are amazing. Fairy tales I make inspired by some famous tale, but using local geography (mountains, woods, local trees, etc.). Kid loves both. While early on he was just falling asleep, these days I have to stop because between his excitement and the three million questions the narrative might take 1.5 hours...

When my kids were that age I read several of the Edge Chronicles. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Edge_Chronicles My childhood favorite is the Dragonlance Twins trilogy. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dragonlance_Legends

The Narnia books by CS Lewis are very good IMHO. But you might want to wait a year or two.
