I have read some literature with our six year old with emotional subjects; such as Lord of the Flies and Black Beauty. If concerned; read the novel first and be prepared for any discussions.

I wouldn't recommend this novel as a gift unless they are much older because you won't be there to have conversations about the violence. Don't be dismayed though; this novel is a masterpiece about perseverance and stamina!! (less)
