I read it in 5th grade without any delay. I was always told by my teachers that I'm a mature reader, but even if I hadn't been as "mature" as they told me I was, I probably still could've handled it before the age of 20.
Michael, are you a father of two at under 20?, or did you read this before age 20?
Probably even the under 20 set would like this. I just felt that reading it after all the other stuff I've read by age 44 or so, the book didn't have a lot to offer and was trying too hard to be "cute." I might have tolerated this better in my teens or 20s but it's cloying now.
