Matching Reading Capability with Emotional Maturity



This blog post offers my suggestions to teachers or parents with a child whose reading capability and thirst for books is often a little out of line with the subject matter of books aimed at their age group. The children to whom I am referring are aged between five and eight and are competent, independent readers. While these children really want to lose themselves in a meaty, wordy text, they do not want to run into content above their maturity level.
