I can still remember doing "Fun with Dick and Jane" at a very early age. Encyclopedia Brown not long after that, and then the Hardy Boys series, Treasure Island, The Adventures of Tom Sawyer, and then every science fiction book I could get my hand on (7th grade for the start of my sci-fi era).

The Hobbit
Doing the same thing this summer with my daughter (6) this summer (my boy listens in too) - last night she asked if she could read it some and she read aloud like 5 pages so I think I have her hooked too.
I'm a big believer in the Hobbit getting kids interested in reading.
