Wow...I was 5 when I read War of the worlds.. in first grade... Lovecraft followed in 5th (7 yo) grade after I found the short Stephen kings Jerusalems Lot ( which is not Salems lot...) and I wanted to learn more about the books he mentioned in it, De Vermis Mysteriis or mystery of the worm lead me to Robert Block who lead me To Lovecraft... I had a happy childhood... Oh, I read Flowers in the attic during shortly after that time period cause mom had it on the bookshelf... at 9... I read anything I got my hands on cause I could. it was the only freedom I truly had as a kid..to escape into a book away from everything.
