I read it when I was 5 along with Rikki Tiki Tavi

 But I prefer White Man's Burden

  Take up the White Man's burden--
  Send forth the best ye breed--
  Go bind your sons to exile
  To serve your captives' need;
  To wait in heavy harness,
  On fluttered folk and wild--
  Your new-caught, sullen peoples,
  Half-devil and half-child.

  Take up the White Man's burden--
  In patience to abide,
  To veil the threat of terror
  And check the show of pride;
  By open speech and simple,
  An hundred times made plain
  To seek another's profit,
  And work another's gain.

  Take up the White Man's burden--
  The savage wars of peace--
  Fill full the mouth of Famine
  And bid the sickness cease;
  And when your goal is nearest
  The end for others sought,
  Watch sloth and heathen Folly
  Bring all your hopes to nought.

  Take up the White Man's burden--
  No tawdry rule of kings,
  But toil of serf and sweeper--
  The tale of common things.
  The ports ye shall not enter,
  The roads ye shall not tread,
  Go mark them with your living,
  And mark them with your dead.

  Take up the White Man's burden--
  And reap his old reward:
  The blame of those ye better,
  The hate of those ye guard--
  The cry of hosts ye humour
  (Ah, slowly!) toward the light:--
  "Why brought he us from bondage,
  Our loved Egyptian night?"

  Take up the White Man's burden--
  Ye dare not stoop to less--
  Nor call too loud on Freedom
  To cloke your weariness;
  By all ye cry or whisper,
  By all ye leave or do,
  The silent, sullen peoples
  Shall weigh your gods and you.

  Take up the White Man's burden--
  Have done with childish days--
  The lightly proferred laurel,
  The easy, ungrudged praise.
  Comes now, to search your manhood
  Through all the thankless years
  Cold, edged with dear-bought wisdom,
  The judgment of your peers!

	Biys start to learn to recite Rikki Tiki Tavi almost as soon as they 
join Beavers...at about age 5 years...but, that's boys, couldn't expect 
girls to understand such deep stuff I guess...

Just as I can't expect *you* to understand the difference between
"recite" and "read".

And you obviously still haven't yet learned to read.
She never said he didn't *recite* it; she said he
couldn't have *read* it.
Then again, you also think Rikki Tikki Tavi is "deep"....

Indeed.  That seems to be a problem with most soc.froots.  My
granddaughter, who is 3, can sing songs that she makes up herself as well
as ones she hears.  She can't read yet, though.  Her mother, my daughter,
was singing all the songs from television at age 2.  SHE could read at age
3.  She's a linguist today.

Being able to convert some marks on a page into words does not mean you 
understand those words and from your interpretation of Kipling's poem it is 
apparent that even at your advanced age you do not understand it at all.
