I just finished reading the Hobbit to my 8 year old and am about 200 pages into the first LOTR book with him. I may have to come back to this to explain a few things.
Also watched the Hobbit movies with him and eventually LOTR movies when we're done, but I had no idea how different they were than the books.
Is the Silmarillion worth reading to an 8(9 in April) year old or will it be too over his head?

The elven rings were never touched by Sauron. They were used to heal and preserve Middle Earth which had been corrupted by Morgoth and Sauron, as long as Sauron didn’t have the One Ring. The nine rings of men were seized by Sauron and how he enslaved their wearers. The Dwarven rings were lost or destroyed, consumed by dragons or returned to Sauron. While the dwarven rings allowed their wearers to accumulate great wealth, dwarves proved resistant to Sauron’s will.

The 9 Rings the Nazgul had, the 7 Rings were all over the place (Sauron I believe captured 2 of them), and as for the 3 Gandalf had one, Galadriel had another, and Elrond had the last one. As for their fate, they were bound to the power of the One, and once it was destroyed the other Rings lost their power.
