“The best approach is NOT to put down such beloved tales and refuse to read them…but to pose questions after.” As in, ask a question and let the kids come to their own conclusion.
Why should kids that young even be introduced to the concept of class warfare?
Class warfare matters the moment you are born. But besides that, I agree with the lesson you took from the story. I just think its a lesson that is much more effective when you include a more complex idea like the authors. You are promoting thinking, at a much higher level. Nothing wrong with layering like that, it’s actually an effective way to promote learning.
