What are we Teaching Kids?

I came across an interview with Patrick Rothfuss, author of Name of the Wind.



I'm mostly posting it for the first part where he talks about childrens' books. Because I so freaking agree that some of them are pretty messed up when you take them apart...
For example one of the books we have for children at the zoo is about a baby giraffe going around and finding out that all the stereotypical negative things about the other animals are true and that they're not worth being around.
What the hell is that supposed to teach kids? Jeez.
