Pippin, the HP books are not suitable for your average seven year old. I'll
defer to a media specialist on exactly which age equivalencies they *are*
suitable for.

However, yes, I and hundreds of others have written slash which would have a
cinema PG-13 rating, i.e. a rating roughly similar to GoF. There is yet more
slash which would have a PG rating. I've not specifically written anything
for a seven year old, no. But I was always a precocious child, and was
reading the Hardy Boys at 7, which IIRC was a 14 year old equivalency. So
I'm not the best person to pick and choose based on ages :D
