Seconded! Eight-and-a-half year old Harry is delightful to read. 
Favourite quote:

"Are you from Narnia?" Harry asked, awed.
"No, Harry. I'm from Yorkshire," Remus grinned.

I think we need put a small slash warning on it, however. Some people 
get upset if characters aren't portrayed as 100 % heterosexual.

Speaking of AUs, Robin's "Promises Unbroken" (complete) and its 
sequel "Promises Remembered" (in progress) are worth reading as well, 
as is her fifth-year fic "Death Before Dishonour". All can be found 
at the Sugar Quill archives. Definite must especially for Siriophiles.

My recs, in a nutshell.
