Classical Composition for younger students?

I just got my copy of CC (Fables) today. It says to start at 4th grade. I have one going into 5th that I'm definitely going to use it for, and one going into 3rd. My 3rd grader reads very well and is definitely not writing-phobic. Would it be OK to move him into Fables, or do you think that might be too complicated for him? He's 8 1/2, and he keeps up with my 5th grader in most things easily. (My 5th grader is behind in math and I haven't kept up her grammar like I should've. They've both going through R&S English 3 this year before we move onto The Latin Road.)

I am going to start using CC this year also. However, my kids are older. Based on my reading through the first three books, I would go ahead and attempt to start your 3rd grader. My thought is that if he gets it and does well, then that is great. If he struggles, just back off and wait until you feel he might be ready again.
