My mother is not doing well (speaking but incoherently at times, seems saddened, I had the feeling intuitively that something was wrong before anyone even informed me that she's been off, etc.). I live away from her but wanted to ship her some novels once I have enough funds. I do not want to send her anything violent or too depressing--she has told me all she ever wanted was to be 'innocent,' while I might regret letting her shy away from the world one day, I would greatly appreciate some recommendations that might help her be like that. I am not sure how well she'll be able to read a novel right now, so anything too complex is probably not a good suggestion, but I have to assume she can still read an item and take something from it.

In short: could we recommend me novels that are happy, not vulgar, with simple prose but a big theme?--basically, whatever you would want your mother to read. I might not respond right away--I have a busy day--but would like to thank anyone in advance for offering help.

My condolences, OP. I hope she gets better.

If you want a book with content, innocence and beauty, I couldn't recommend more "The Little Prince".
This is everything you want. Also, read it yourself if you haven't yet (but with no prejudice, this is a children's book only in the sense that children will enjoy it too, though not by the same reasons).

Thank you!

And thank you, too. This reminds me of a book I would read with her as a child- the story was of a young boy who played his drums. Would anyone happen to know the name of it? I'm sure she would love to see it again.

I'll check out both recommendations. :) thanks again

Ya can't speak English, ya can't read English.

Don't be upset, OP.

Seconding this. Also, my mom's favourite book is Jane Eyre. She also enjoys Bill Bryson 's books.
