I recently finished reading Atlas Shrugged by Ayn Rand. Incredible book, I'm delighted.

It may sound strange, but now I'm reading a children's book about Tom Sawyer and find those aspects that I did not notice when I first read this book as a child. https://studydriver.com/tom-sawyer-essay/ helped me broaden my understanding of the text. Imagine banning a book and disregarding its significance based on the softness of present day society. Well, The Adventures of Tom Sawyer was banned because throughout the book, derogatory terms were directed at black people. The language used in writing reflects the culture of its time.

I just wonder why we could always read a book in our childhood and not understand it so much. Then, when you re-read a book with a new level of experience, you realize it much better and deeper.
