The Secret Garden by Frances Hodgson Burnett
The Chronicles of Narnia by C.S. Lewis
Harry Potter by J.K. Rowling
I found this book to an interesting read however not very stimulating. It was a classic fairytale where everything falls very neatly into place and everyone lives Happily Ever After. I don't think adolescents would find this book as interesting as other books that are similar such as the Chronicles of Narnia.
This book is highly sexist with very negative conotations towards women. Do you think the protaganist Maria overcomes the sexism and defies it, or is she docile and accepting? How much of this is just a product of time?
