No, I don't think young children like the same stories as older children. Young kids usually go for simple stories with lots of colorful pictures. They love it when the language is repetitive and has a rhythm to it. On the other hand, older children are into stories with more complex plots and characters. They start to appreciate stories that have deeper themes and moral lessons.

Yes, I think both young and older children can enjoy the same stories, especially those with adventure and fantasy elements. Fairy tales and classic stories have a timeless appeal that spans different age groups. Stories featuring animals or magical creatures are also a hit with both young and older kids. Plus, everyone loves a story that's funny and entertaining.

It depends on the individual child. Some kids might like the same stories regardless of their age, while others have different tastes. Cultural background can also play a role in what stories they prefer. Exposure to various types of stories can shape their preferences, and family or friends might influence their choices too.
