Fantasy books: anything by Diana Wynne Jones (a big inspiration for Harry Potter). Some titles are for older teens, though. & graphic novels: Iliad & Odyssey by the amazing Gareth Hinds! Also Gamayun Tales by Alexander Utkin!

That's one Dylan song I have NOT yet played for my child yet because it's just so awful (the story, not the song)!
But we recently played "Two Soldiers" (so sad!!) & "Love Henry" (just yikes!) 😊
