Actually, if I recall, Gregor had some pretty violent, gory scenes that disturbed my son when he read it, probably around 5th grade age. So even Gregor is too intense for some middle-grade readers.

(And three cheers for "Gregor"--absolutely one of my favorite middle grade fantasy series. Perfect for third or fourth grade.)
