What Our Children Should Read
This is one of the 743 lists we use to generate our main The Greatest Books list.
About this list
The Birmingham Post, 10 Books
The National Curriculum Council devised a list of books that should be read by young people. When they list an author instead of a specific book, that author's most iconic work is chosen to represent them.
The NCC consists of 58 members, including the Minister for Federal Education and Professional Training, provincial education ministers, and representatives from universities, madrasas, and other stakeholders.
This list was originally published in 1993 and was added to this site about 1 year ago.
