@ all the people ROYALLY missing the point: she isn't even saying it aged up badly from its publication, she's literally saying it's aged disgracefully from when she read it AS A CHILD. She has a completely different memory of the book from her childhood! And now, with added wisdom, she's not liking the book anymore and she's marveling at how as a child she didn't even notice most of the weird things in it. Happens all the time. Some of my favorite kids books turned out to be absolutely trash quality lmao.
