    Exactly. Children’s books can cover gristly subjects just fine, the thing that makes the difference is the tone and presentation.

    Witches boiled him into a stew and ate him up with some buttered toast = fine for a children’s book

    Talking about how the witches spent weeks slowly cutting pieces off him while still alive = NOT okay!
