I read my first Saki (H.H. Munro) short story when I was a pre-teen, and I still remember it. It was The Open Window, and is included in Beasts and Super-Beasts, available at Project Gutenberg.

It's also available here in the MobileReads Library:

Munro died in 1916, so everything should be in the public domain.

The Open Window is a bit spooky, but also very funny -- perfect for a kid, IMHO, but you know your child best.
