What reading level is Autumn Street book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
I am prancing. I am prancing in and out of the kitchen from the back porch, with my feet high in the air like a thoroughbred pony.
In truth, my feet were high because Grandmother, stern and exacting, had braided my pigtails as tightly as she crocheted the edges of organdy placemats; my forehead felt pulled smooth as a mask, and my ears hurt less if I walked on tiptoe. When Mama braided my hair, she did it softly, with deft and accustomed hands.
But Mama was busy now, mornings, with the baby.
I w...anted to be barefoot, but barefoot was not allowed at Grandfather's house. Going barefoot, said Grandmother, was tasteless and caused hookworm. Often Charles and I shed our shoes beside the garage or out behind the lilac bushes, where no one could see. Before I rebuckled myself into my practical brown sandals, I always checked my feet for small worms that would, I thought, have tiny mouths shaped vaguely like the tops of wire coathangers.
Sometimes Charles and I tasted the dusty Pennsylvania earth that accumulated on our feet.
