You're at a good time for The Hobbit. Strangely I find that Winnie the Pooh does not age well and is an awkward read.

The Wind in the Willows is good beginning around that age too.

Really? I still love Winnie the Pooh, but I grew up with him so I’m somewhat biased. But I love the whimsy and musicality in the language.
