WTM recommendations for reading

I am thinking of following the recommended reading list for 3rd year grammar stage. The first literature books are Robinson Crusoe and Gulliver's Travels..... am I supposed to read unabridged to them? Seems like a stretch for comprehension at 2nd and 3rd grade. Should I look for an abridged version for them to read independently? Any recommendations?

If you have a good library and can search by tltle and filter to "Juvenile," you might be able to see a few abridged versions with illustrations. These books tend to be a bit harder sell for my kids (maybe I'm alone), so I generally get the ones available, make sure none is absolutely horrible, and let them vote which we read. (And yes, even with the abridged version, I usually end up doing it as a read-aloud at this level.)
