Children's Books

 

It’s interesting how some of life’s greatest lessons can be found in children’s literature. Or as an excellent book published decades ago claimed, "All I need to know I learned in kindergarten".  And chances are that we did not realize the wisdom we were given back when we were kids. Sometimes it’s only when we’re older that we learn to fully appreciate and understand the poignant words from our childhood entertainment.

Here’s some of the best quotes from books we used to read - or were read to us - when we were children.
