the young people these days are too brain washed with all these magical love/romantic issues and teenage drama with vampires etc. they are practically brainwashed.
animorphs is quite a intelligent and knowledgeable series, and it incorporates a lot of themes, such as the bond of friendship, war, peace and so on. hopefully it will get kids to think, to be interested in science and outer space again, you know, whats really out there and the possibilities - instead of just wanting to be bitten by vampires. :/
