Man: My kid's fourth-grade teacher says he's only reading at a third-grade level.
Brutus: How concerned are you?
Man: The way I look at it, when he's forty, who's gonna care if he's reading at a thirty-nine-year-old level!
Same here. I did a book report on The Shining (my dad is a huge Stephen King fan) in 3rd grade. And on Dune in 2nd grade :) My teachers at least let me do my own thing through middle school when it came to reading.
One year our class HAD to read Great Expectations, no matter what level your reading skills were, we all reached the consensus that we would never read another book by Dickens.
I got you all beat. I read Rise and Fall of the Third Reich before I even came down the chute. That is before I was born for those who don’t understand that.

How true. No one ever cares, not my bosses for sure, if I read at whatever grade, how I scored in my history, math and so forth.
