Solid list. In additional to those I would also consider some classic children's literature like The Adventures of Huck Finn and The Chronicles of Narnia. Both of those brought me a lot of joy when I was young.

I want 6 which are all homeschooled and I want a stay at home wife and I want to live in a innawoods house where we grow some of our own food.

I'm 27, i'm poverty stricken and i'm currently a cleaninglady(male). How likely is my dream?

Did I forget to mention that I live in a non-free country where homeschooling is illegal?

The ending of monte crispy really does read like a children's tale. I don't feel like fixing autocorrect.

Just because you read some Homer to your child doesn't mean you can't also read the stories about potato girl.

Not that in particular, it'll probably be a snooze fest for the kid. I mean if he's going to bed yeah he'll fall asleep.
I'd find it more interesting to read the short storys about the Greek gods themselves

I have 3yo son
I am twenty6 yo

>reading translations to your kids

No, you start them with Greek and Latin early so they don't turn out complete plebeians

I'll not couple with any women and allow them to corrupt my soul and steal my essence.

a lot of my old students really liked the hobbit, the phantom tollbooth, and to kill a mockingbird. so probably those, like, hypothetically.
