And in their places are the likes of Jeff Kinneys Diary of a Wimpy Kid. And as for the 19th Century classics of English literature, such as Emily Bronte and Charles Dickens, many children simply have not heard of them.One south London mother, Geri Cox, explained how her daughters Year 5 class was to be named this year after the literary giant, Jane Austen. But the class teacher soon had second thoughts when the suggested name was met with blank stares. “My daughter came back and said they werent going to be called Austen class anymore, because not many people had heard of her. Instead, the class was to be named after Rowing, the Harry Potter author.”Ms. Morgan argues that children will miss out if they do not have access to “our rich heritage(遗产) of world-famous childrens literature”. But perhaps these more modern books are able to do the job of lighting the literary touch paper just as well. A spokesman for Penguin Random House Childrens books said: “Millions of children are readers because of Diary of a Wimpy Kid and Jeff Kinneys work is perfect for turning unwilling readers on to books.”According to Seni Glaister, childrens books expert, the mix of type-face and art is a big part of the attraction. “It means the text does not look frightening and that it will therefore appeal to unwilling readers.”1、Who enjoys the greatest popularity among children?AJeff Kinney.
