I have been reading The Little Prince to my SO while she is away on a trip to help her fall asleep at night. It started as a kind of half joke, but I think we are both enjoying this more than expected so I would probably like to try out some other books/stories at some point.
We are both about 36 read it as a child so the nostalgia factor is a plus and I like that it is not targeted at adults exactly, but has some very relatable morals/ideas/humor. I think I would prefer something with either short stories or short chapters that don't require you to follow the plot much. So are there any favorites you have reread as an adult or something you have read to children that you also enjoyed as an adult? Recommendations for adult stuff (I don't mean sexual) are also welcome.
Not looking for podcasts or anything like that, I want to read it myself.
