<BLOCKQUOTE>quote:<HR> I wouldn't say it's a fantasy book, because it's a childrens book... <HR></BLOCKQUOTE>Many children's books are "fantasy"; <I>The Hobbit</I>, <I>Prydain Chronicles</I> by Lloyd Alexander, George MacDonald's books (which Tolkien himself says influenced him), <I>Chronicles of Narnia</I> - C.S. Lewis specifically wrote these for children, <I>Through the Looking-Glass</I> and <I>Alice in Wonderland</I>. These are all children's books, but there is no question whatsoever that they are fantasy, and not just fantasy, but very good books to read as an adult as well!
