The Three Musketeers
A Journey to the Centre of the Earth
Two more titles in the Ladybird Children's Classics series follow the well-trodden Ladybird path to successful selling. Ladybirds are available at every conceivable outlet from post office to chemist through corner shop. Should not this very availability, accessibility, popularity, be used to inculcate in their readership an appreciation of quality and style? To put out these bowdlerised, skeletal versions under the heading of 'Children's Classics' seems somehow to miss the point of why the originals were classics.
