This is a children book. How old are you?

If you are looking for a deeper meaning read Dostoevsky.

Before you will drown in Russian literature I would recommend to start with classic French literature.

Alexandre Dumas

Honoré de Balzac

Victor Hugo

Emile Zola

George Sand

Guy de Maupassant

Gustave Flaubert

Thank you! I'll keep that in mind. I'm actually planning to read Les Miserables this year

Why is this getting downvoted? It IS a children's book. Doesn't mean all age ranges can't enjoy it but it was written specifically for children the author knew.

I am not sure but points don’t mean anything. But I think when OP replied that he/she is 16 Redditors were offended because he is still a child.

People looking for deeper meaning in a books that specifically were written for kids to understand good and bad in more straightforward forms.
