Well, I would never want the perfect to be the enemy of the good, as I think the saying goes.

I'm not saying that kids reading easy reads is bad. The trend I'm starting to see, though (and if I'm imagining it, someone let me know) is books meant for younger audiences appealing to older and older readers. (Harry Potter and Twilight being the two that spring to mind).
