I realize that was the question that Ty was asking. The reason I responded the way I did, and I apolofgize if I was unclear, is that I don't recall specifically when we moved from mostly picture books to books without pictures. I do recall that both kids were reading chapter books when they were 6, so obviously, I had begun reading them to them well before that.
The Princess began to read the Little House on the Prairie wseries when she was about 6. She read books like Beverly CLeary's Ramona series when she was 5. The Monster began to read about animals when he was 5. He became an animal a week later.
