Well, personally I have no problem with this. It is not what I would do, but every child grows up a bit different and matures at a different age/time. My daughter is 3 and will soon be 4. I dont think the Hobbit, is a good book for her. Even though I love Tolkien, to her it would be boring, she would not understand the plot(she doesnt even know what the word is), she would prefer if I continued the wonderfully animted Clifford or Arthur books she has. I cant wait to get her into reading some of the books that I love(which is quite alot). But the time will come, and I will not rush it. When she is old enough and is curious about them, then we will read them together.
