Potentially misleading/problematic title considering the book's target age group

[edit source]

Many 10- to 12-year-olds are not that much smaller than adults and/or do not consider themselves little, and they may even feel insulted by being called little. If they see a book called The Little Gardener, there's a good chance that they may think that it's a book for little kids and not even click on it. If they do click on it and see that it's for their own age, they might still not read it, thinking that it's written by adults who are so out of touch with tweens that they consider them to be small children.

In my opinion, renaming this book to The Young Gardener or something similar would still achieve the same purpose without potentially insulting or luring away the book's target audience. Evil Sith Lord (discusscontribs) 06:58, 14 November 2021 (UTC)Reply
