(Anonymous) 2014-10-14 05:50 am (UTC)(link)No idea, but I don't think it's necessarily a problem. Quite a few classics are "dated" in the sense that they're set relatively far back in history compared to the time period in which they're popular: Laura Ingalls Wilder's Little House series, Anne of Green Gables, Chronicles of Narnia, etc. Most of the books I read as a kid (which would've been in the 80s) were about times, cultures and places I had absolutely no clue about. I think kids are fairly open minded and accepting of the fact that stories are different like that.
The Great Brain books were pretty cute, as I recall. Lots of shenanigans about boyhood, siblings, and a kid who was maybe a little too smart for his own good. I think your nephew would be fine. :)

(Anonymous) 2014-10-14 05:12 pm (UTC)(link)I don't think so - they're set in the 1890's and were written in the '70s, so technically they were kind of "dated" when I read them in the '80s. I think they're still really enjoyable - I started reading an excerpt of one of the chapters yesterday after posting this and thought it was great.
