Awesome kids books:
The House with a Clock in Its Walls (and the two sequels)
A Wrinkle In Time (and the two sequels)
Charlotte's Web
Anything by Roald Dahl (especially The Witches, The Twits, and George's Marvelous Medicine)
Scary Stories to Tell In the Dark
To Kill a Mockingbird (ok not a kids book but I read it in 5th grade).
I didn't get into Stephen King until 7th grade, when I picked up "Eyes of the Dragon" and "It". (Around the same time I read Anne Rice's Vampire Chronicles).
