Gifted Issues Discussion homepage Forums General Discussion When did your child start to read independently?

DD6 was reading by 3. She could pick out different words at 2 but independently by 3. She still loves to read but there are times she wants us to read to her and we happily do it. Most times she reads to me or we take turns. They tested her and told us she reads at an adult level whatever that means. I find the hardest thing is to find books that she is emotionally ready for.
