[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]My opinion: the first one is ok. The second one is probably ok. The third one and after, too scary, and also I don't know how much a 6-year-old would get out of it. There are lots and lots of lovely books to read out loud to 6-year-olds that are not Harry Potter.[/quote] I agree. I read my now 8 year old the first Harry Potter when he was 5 or 6. He likes it. We never made it through the second one. He kind of got turned off of Harry Potter at that point and doesn't want to read it now although alot of his friends are reading it now. I do think the content is not exactly age appropriate although kids can take what they take from it at one point and read it again and get different stuff from it. My son was am early reader, 4 I think. Basically let him read whatever he wanted, got some recs from librarians. He read all the Magic Treehouse books when he was in K, which seemed more age appropriate.[/quote]
