Translation:
Father: THE TIME COMES WHEN EVERY FATHER AND CHILD MUST HAVE AN IMPORTANT CONVERSATION. ARE YOU READY?
Son: Yes, FATHER.
Father: THE ENTIRE HISTORY OF HUMANITY IS A HISTORY OF CLASS STRUGGLE. PATRICIANS AND PLEBEYS, FREEMEN AND SLAVES, OPPRESSORS AND OPPRESSED FACE TO FACE…
I wish every parent talked about this with their children. Hot take: if you don’t bring up your children with socialist values you’re not parenting well.
My six year old understands the basics of capitalism better than most university professors. This book was a great help - I started reading it to him when he was two! :)
finally I’ve found something to add to my kids reading list that instills some basic values I seek to teach and 50 dollary doos
We got it as a gift. :(
But I just had a look here and found used paperback versions for $6!
Thank you! Found it used for cheap. :)
I also have a 6 year old, can you recommend any other leftist children’s books?
Sure thing, my first post was about this very subject!
Thank you!
Managed to snatch 4 more books recommended there for cheap. :)
Growing up in the USSR I loved Cipollino, very disappointed to find out there is no English translation. It seems the only Gianni Rodari book translated into English is “The Moon of Kyiv” and they only published it recently in response to the war. Anglos always manage to find new creative ways to disappoint me when I thought that’s no longer possible.
Nice! Glad that helped, comrade. I actually did find an English translation of Cipollino when I posted that, but it’s pretty rough.
