Re: "When the other preschoolers were reading See Spot Run, I was reading Hamlet!"

I didn't understand the more adult concepts, like assault, but I understood what I could from a child's perspective.

I was reading out of my age level, but I think the most significant memory I had where it was different for me was when I was reading The Hunchback of Notre Dame. Where she finds the shoe made me so emotional, I had to be removed from class and sent home early because I wouldn't stop crying. I actually never finished the book because the school took away the copy I had. This was second grade. It's still kinda traumatic for me, even thinking about that scene causes me to tear up.

But yeah. Comprehending as an adult vs comprehending as a child is totally different. Kids probably "understand" the material, but not like an adult would. So, when people like you mentioned tell me that, I ask them what they thought of it as an adult. If they reread it as an adult, I'm more inclined to lay off, but if they hadn't, I do judge if they say they "read" x, y, or z novel.
