Mmm--I actually don't agree with this. Which doesn't mean I think kids shouldn't be allowed to read books that are a bit beyond them, or contain words they don't know!

Constrained by what the child can reasonably be expected to understand (relative to the individual, not a group), I'd say.

What is to give light must endure burning.
