Just So Stories and
The Jungle Book. All of those informed in some ways, I think, who I wanted to write for and my style but the thing that marked me most is when I rediscovered all of those books reading them to my children.
C.S. Lewis used to say that “No children’s book that can’t be enjoyed by a fifty-year-old is a very good children’s book.” I now get what he meant by that. What he means is unless that book has some eternal reach and truth that can not only touch the child in their youth but touch that child when they’re older it really isn’t a great piece of literature or worth very much. So, I’ve always tried to write with an eye to the young person that’s reading today and the young at heart who might be reading it again later.

As our Advent journey draws to a close, we want to consider the last two canticles presented for our prayerful consideration by St. Luke, the
Gloria
Nunc Dimittis.
We now move into the second chapter of St. Luke’s Gospel, where we read of the birth of Jesus and various events connected to the infancy and early life of the Child Savior. These texts have been known to us since childhood, enchanting us then; it is devoutly to be hoped that they enchant us still. If they don’t, it may be a very worthwhile Christmas project to attempt to regain that spiritual childhood promoted by St. Thérèse of Lisieux. Of course, the Little Flower didn’t invent the notion; it came from the lips of the Lord Himself: “Truly, I say to you, unless you turn and become like children, you will never enter the kingdom of heaven” (Mt 18:3).
