[quote=Anonymous]I have a kid who is now 7th grade who learned to read at 3 and was so far ahead of anyone his age that it was laughable. He read the entire Harry Potter series when he just turned 5 for example, and then the latest one a little later (the play), as soon as it was published. He devours books. He’s 12 now and I have always let him pick whatever he wants to read, which means that now at 12 he’s mostly reading the same level of books that he was reading at 8 - at 8 they were years above his age, now they are closer. If I remember rightly, he was very into dystopian science fiction at that age (10) - books like Maze Runner and the Hunger Games. Greek mythology was also a big interest - there are some pretty dense books on that topic, going way beyond the Rick Riordan stuff (which he also liked). Just let him pick what he wants to read![/quote]
