Neil Gaiman is an English author of lots of science fiction and fantasy works.His argument is that children shouldn't be discouraged from reading what adults may think of as bad books. He is dead right.
A child in a library is an explorer venturing into a land where he has no map to guide him. This is part of the excitement. Everything is newHis taste is yet unformed, and it cannot be formed until he has tried a variety of thing.
Not knowing what books are good or bad, an eager child will try very different things.At the age of eleven or twelve, I still read Enid Blyton Stevenson's Kidnapped, was happily terrified by ghost stories and desperately wanted to be Rupert of Hentzau, a most attractive evil character in literature.
A child reads for enjoyment from all sorts of books. I can't remember when I stopped reading comics like the Wizard and Hotspur, but I'm pretty sure that my reading of them continued even while I was delighted in Sherlock Holmes or in the short stories of HG Wells.
Never say “Don't read that rubbish” or “You're too young for that”. If he is really too young and the book is beyond him, he'll put it aside. If he doesn't, then he's not too young, even if he misses much that an adult reader would find in it.
The only useful thing an adult can do is to give a child a book and say, “I think you might enjoy this.” Don't complain if he doesn't like it and turns to something that you think is bad.
A. Anything he reads may be attractive，too.
B. Everybody has a secret world inside of themselves.
C. For the young reader even a bad book has its own value.
D. Adults should be careful in what they say to a child about his reading.
E. Almost everyone who reads widely as an adult has read wildly as a child.
F. The world always seems brighter when you've just made something that wasn't there before.
G. He is also a productive blogger and the point he gave in one of his blogs surely makes sense.
