What reading level is A Family And a Fortune book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
How can I remember who has had it, and manage about the second cups, if it is taken out of my hands? I don’t know how many times I have asked you to leave it alone.’ ‘A good many, Mother dear, but you tend to be rather a laggard. When the poor boys sit in thirsty patience it quite goes to my heart.’ ‘It would not hurt them to wait a few minutes. Your father and your uncle are not down yet. There is no such hurry.’ Mrs Gaveston dealt with the coffee with small, pale, stiff hands, looking with que...rulous affection at her children and signing in a somewhat strained manner to the servant to take the cups. She had rather uncertain movements and made one or two mistakes, which she rectified with a sort of distracted precision. She lifted her face for her children’s greetings with an air of forgetting the observance as each one passed, and of being reminded of it by the next. She was a rather tall, very pale woman of about sixty, who somehow gave the impression of being small, and whose spareness of build was without the wiriness supposed to accompany it.
