Wow.
That one word is the first thing to come to my mind when I think of this story. Though the title may be "The Children's Story", this is definitely not the type of thing that anyone would choose to read to their child. Now, I will tell you why. In short, this story is basically about a "teacher" who is persuading her young students to go against everything that they believe in and have always known. She manipulated all of these children within twenty minutes... crazy right? She made these innocent little kids think that she was so wonderful; a child's dream come true. She sang to them. She gave them candy. She made them feel special. Above all, though, she made them trust her. In the process of doing all of this, however, the teacher was lying to the children; she was deceiving them.. all while maintaining that 'perfect' exterior.
