I'm sure I've put this on this list before, but re Spenser and children:
the esteemed Canadian poet James Reaney, whose poems I edited 30 years
ago, read FQ to his children at bed-time, and the full monty too -- no
feeble condensations. They are reported to have lapped it up. Reaney
did his thesis (with Frye) on Spenser and Yeats, if I recall correctly.
