Recommended books for children

Books have always been a huge part of my life

Once upon a time, I believed that most good books were the ones that could draw tears or laughter, but then, with time, with explorations, that idea changed, and I learned that there are many different types of books, and their common factor is not all about emotions, but about growing, learning, and being a better version of oneself (maybe not as a direct influence, but more through comparisons and reflections)

Traveling the Earth is a long journey, and one can be less lonely when there are companions such as books along the way~
