I think six might be a bit young but there were six year olds at the
movie last night so what do I know. My youngest read the first book at
about 8 IIRC. What I'd do is buy the first book and try reading it to
him. If he gets bored and seems not into it, put it aside for a bit
longer.

I lurve Doctor Who. I'm a Dr Newbie though. I think it's David Tennant
that has me hooked . If they switch Drs on me again I might loose
interest ;-)
