While a lot of literature will be, *everything* at a high reading level isn't necessarily above the maturity level of an 8 year old. It might help us give suggestions for reading (for fun) if you let us know examples of books he's already read, as well as books he's enjoyed. I would also request in your IEP meeting that he receive differentiation in language arts and ask that the school make suggestions re literature at the appropriate reading level.
