12 Children’s Books That Taught You Everything You Needed to Know

Reading is such an important skill, and not just because it’s the foundation of a strong education. Books are also where so many of life’s lessons can be gleaned. Astrophysicist Neil deGrasse Tyson once compiled a list of his top eight must-read books for any intelligent adult to understand the western world, ranging from the Bible to Gulliver’s Travels. So, what about kids? We decided to put together an equivalent reading list for youngsters — stories, fables and poems that will prepare them for the challenges and wonders of the world. Here are 12 books that tackle some of life’s most important subjects, such as individuality, diversity, growing older and the environment.

1. The Complete Tales of Winnie-the-Pooh ($23): He may be a silly old bear, but Pooh packs a lot of wisdom in the Hundred-Acre Wood. These are the stories that led to the more parent-friendly Tao of Pooh. One of our favorite pieces of advice: “If the person you are talking to doesn’t appear to be listening, be patient. It may simply be that he has a small piece of fluff in his ear.”

2. Matilda ($6): The lovely protagonist of this Roald Dahl classic isn’t just gifted magically — although that’s the entertaining part — she’s also gifted intellectually, which makes this a fantastic story for growing minds.

3. The Lorax ($8): Undoubtedly more than one Dr. Seuss novel will end up in your house, but make sure this is one of them. It deals with respecting the environment, something that’s going to be an important issue when your little genius is older.

4. A Chair for My Mother ($7): Dr. Tyson suggests The Wealth of Nations for grownups to learn about economics, so for a young companion we suggest this picture book about a girl and her family working hard and saving up money for a big purchase.

5. Little Blue and Little Yellow ($7): These two little dots combine to make the color green, but the story goes far beyond basic color mixing, with morals about the influence of others and cultural and racial diversity.

6. Harriet the Spy ($6): This is more than a brilliant coming-of-age novel; it’s a lesson in what happens when you tell it like it is — both the good and the bad.

7. The Giving Tree ($12): How can you pick just one Shel Silverstein? Kids are sure to love his silly poems, but The Giving Tree is the one whose message will become more and more poignant throughout life. Really. *sob*

8. Wonder ($10): Bullying is a terrible problem that every child encounters in one way or another. In protagonist Auggie’s case, it’s his physical appearance that his classmates can’t get over. His desire to be seen for more than his facial differences is something all kids need to read about.

9. A Wrinkle in Time ($6): For older kids that are starting to get into sci-fi, this ‘60s novel explores not just space and time, but also themes of good and evil, conformity and individuality, knowledge, family and love.

10. The Little Prince ($9): While Dr. Tyson says Machiavelli’s The Prince is a must-read for adults, we’d much rather kids didn’t learn about “the ends justifying the means” for a long, long time. By comparison, this French novella is a beautifully translated story with themes of open-mindedness, imagination and what it’s like to be a grownup.

11. Aesop’s Fables($3): There are some lessons we all need to learn (and be reminded of) throughout life: slow and steady wins the race, a bird in the hand is worth two in the bush, sour grapes, etc. The moral of the story is, make sure your kids know their fables.

12. Harry Potter ($52): There are many, MANY reasons why these books became as popular as they did, and it’s not just the magic. Good vs. evil, life and death, the value of friendship, love conquering all… if only we had a Time Turner and could experience these stories as kids all over again.

What kids’ book has had the most profound effect on you or your children? We want to hear your favorites in the comments!

Traveling has the power to open our minds and transform the way we view the world. From experiencing different cultures and traditions to meeting new people from other walks of life, every trip you take offers an opportunity to broaden your perspective.

Now, people can have different driving forces behind their wanderlust, whether it's wanting to connect with others or simply enjoying the thrill of adventure. Even so, the zodiac might play a role in shaping our travel tendencies.

Certain signs are naturally more curious and love to explore new horizons. That's why there are eight zodiac signs most likely to be world travelers.

Scroll to see which zodiac signs are most likely to travel!

Brit + Co

1. Sagittarius (November 22 – December 21)

There's no doubt that Sagittarians are the ultimate world travelers. They're free spirits with an insatiable curiosity and a constant desire to go beyond their familiar surroundings.

Since this sign is ruled by Jupiter, the planet of growth, it makes sense why Sagittarians thrive when they're experiencing new things. Travel isn't just about the destination for them, either. They truly enjoy the journey and love diving into the unknown.

Brit + Co

2. Gemini (May 21 – June 20)

Another travel-hungry zodiac sign is Gemini. Ruled by Mercury, the planet of intellectual pursuits, Geminis are curious, appreciate variety, and are constantly on the lookout for new experiences.

Travel affords them the perfect opportunity to learn about fresh ideas. Plus, this sign is flexible and adaptable, meaning Geminis can easily immerse themselves in different environments.

Brit + Co

3. Aquarius (January 20 – February 18)

Aquarians are known for having progressive mindsets and a deep desire to explore new ways of thinking. So, this sign tends to be drawn to destinations that challenge their point of view.

As an air sign, Aquarians also adore connection and will often seek out meaningful interactions with locals while traveling. They like to learn and find inspiration in unique corners of the world that others may overlook.

Brit + Co

4. Pisces (February 19 – March 20)

Pisces are fueled by their imagination and emotional depth, so they seek out destinations that nurture their creativity and offer a sense of peace.

For this sign, which takes a more spiritual approach, travel is a way to escape the mundane to recharge and dream. Whether they opt to visit a quiet coastline or a remote forest, Pisces are inspired by nature and reflection.

Brit + Co

5. Aries (March 21 – April 19)

Aries view traveling in a much different light. Because they're ruled by Mars, they relish excitement and action, like thrill-seekers.

This sign loves trips that get their energy pumping and gives them an adrenaline rush, ranging from skydiving and cliff-jumping to mountain climbing. Aries are independent and spontaneous and appreciate adventures that push them both mentally and physically.

Brit + Co

6. Cancer (June 21 – July 22)

Next up is Cancer, a water sign that takes a more sentimental approach to traveling. They like familiarity and forging deep emotional connections, so they are drawn to destinations that hold some form of personal significance.

Cancers prefer to bond as opposed to explore, whether that's by visiting extended family or learning more about their heritage roots.

Brit + Co

7. Leo (July 23 – August 22)

Leos, who love to live their lives in the spotlight, are a different story. They're all about luxury, which extends to their travel style.

This sign looks for places that match their high energy, like cities or high-end resorts. Since Leos have an eye for glamour, their trips usually revolve around fashion, art, or overall indulgence.

So, one thing is certain: going on a vacation with a Leo will be anything but boring.

Brit + Co

8. Capricorn (December 22 – January 19)

Finally, despite Capricorns being known for their ambitious nature, they enjoy traveling (when it works alongside their drive for success).

This sign prefers to visit destinations that are steeped in culture or history as a way to enhance their personal and professional lives. Capricorns also value a balance of leisure and productivity, so they may create itineraries to get the most out of their time away from home.

Love it or hate it, Meghan Markle's With Love, Meghan series has been renewed for Season 2. It's the talk of the internet with fans and critics alike chiming in with their opinions about seeing her embrace a "soft girl" era. But before we dive into what people have been saying about the new Netflix show, we're dishing out what's to come once everyone gets their season 1 fix.

P.s. We're also dishing about her controversial name change 👀.

Keep scrolling to learn about Season 2 of With Love, Meghan — and what you might've missed during Season 1!

Is 'With Love, Meghan' really renewed for Season 2?

Jenna Peffley/Netflix

This is not a drill. With Love, Meghan has been greenlit for Season 2 at Netflix with the media giant confirming the news themselves. The host of the show also shared the huge news on Instagram just mere hours ago.

Her caption reads: "Oh, how I love ASMR! If you’re loving Season 1, just wait until you see the fun we cooked up on Season 2! Thanks for joining the party, and an endless thanks to the amazing team and crew who helped bring it all to life! @netflix."

Has a release date been shared?

Courtesy of Netflix

The news is still fresh so we'll have to wait longer to see when Meghan will be back with more feel-good tips about how to romanticize your life.

Who's made an appearance on 'With Love, Meghan' Season 1?

Courtesy of Netflix

Guests like Mindy Kaling, Daniel Martin, Abigail Spencer, and Alice Waters have appeared on the show. From engaging in fun conversations to making memorable recipes together, Meghan and her guests seemed like they enjoying each other's company.

What's up with Meghan's name change?

Justin Coit/Netflix

During a segment where Meghan and Mindy Kaling were talking, the latter appeared "shocked" when something she said was corrected. She kept calling Meghan by her former name to which the latter said, "It's so funny, too, that you keep saying, 'Meghan Markle.' You know, I'm Sussex now."

As reported by E! News, Mindy hasn't thought twice about the moment. "You know, I had a great time...We were making sandwiches and then they’ll push in on my face on TikTok and they’ll be like, ‘Look at this emotion you felt,'" she said during an appearance on The View. She added, "...and I honestly didn’t even remember it because we shot it like nine months ago."

How do people feel about 'With Love, Meghan?'

Courtesy of Netflix

Some people are thrilled about With Love, Meghan while others feel the Sussex isn't relatable. A Screen Rant article begins by saying, "...the series comes across as a wealthy socialite playing house, while the world is forced to stand by and watch how the other half lives."

However, Glamour thinks otherwise. "What’s not to love about the Montecito landscape, or the ASMR-inducing scene when Markle and her beekeeper are filmed double-straining their freshly harvested golden honey dripping indulgently down into a bowl, or the soothing sounds of Markle’s voice as she walks you through her favorite ways to make a houseguest feel spoiled and special."

No matter where you stand, Meghan's not giving up on sharing recipes and what she considers to be fun conversations.
