Yes, exactly. When you reread those kinds of books as an adult, it's so that you can get a glimpse of your childhood self, like climbing under a warm blanket. I actually believe that adults can get something out of most good children's or YA books, but it's not, usually, the same thing that a child or teenager will get out of them. You can never step in the same river twice, and all that.
