[quote=Anonymous]My son read the Harry Potter series in first grade. Yes, he understood them, but this was also after he started reading at age 3 and had read every Magic Treehouse book we could find when he was 4; all of Judy Moody and Stink, Geronimo Stilton, A-Z mysteries, a ton of Beverly Cleary, and bunches of Roald Dahl in K. However, I doubt that 4 or 5 kids in each K class or even 1st grade class could do this. Honestly, it's not easy knowing what advanced books are "age appropriate" for an advanced reader. I do the best I can. If he can read and understand it, if it doesn't scare him or contain inappropriate content, I just let him read. I can't pre-read what he wants to read because I honestly can't keep up with him. This kid devouers books. Is he reading the Hunger Games series now? No :) That will have to wait until age 12 or so.
