When I was around 10 in the mid 90s, I started trying to read my mom's copy of John Fraleigh's "A First Course in Abstract Algebra". It gave me the same feeling of realizing the sheer depth of how little I knew, and was one of the things that piqued my interest in math and physics.
As long as parents keep interesting books in their shelves, I think we'll be fine.
