I agree - I think it definitely depends on the child. I also read several of the Dumas titles (full adult versions, not kid versions) when I was about the same age, and enjoyed them.
I have gone back and re-read as an adult, and there were definitely some adult parts that had gone over my head, and I hadn't really understood much of the historical background either, but they were still good stories for a kid who loved reading.
