It might work out ok :hug: My dd10 read the book when she was 8 in school as her choice in a project assignment where the children were told to select an autobiography and then put together a timeline of events. She's a very sensitive kid in general - not necessarily easily scared, but very sensitive to other people's emotions and to the sense of justice etc. She was a-ok with reading the book even though I was not all that sure about it! And it did bring up some very good deep conversations at home.
