What reading level is Character book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
" A strange confession fora boy to make! But he gave his physical health no fair chance. His lifewas all brain-work, study, and competition. When he took exercise it wasin sudden bursts, which did him more harm than good. Long walks in theHighlands jaded and exhausted him; and he returned to his brain-workunrested and unrefreshed.
It was during one of his forced walks of some twenty-four miles inthe neighbourhood of Stirling, that he injured one of his feet, and hereturned home seriously ill. T...he result was an abscess, disease of theankle-joint, and long agony, which ended in the amputation of theright foot. But he never relaxed in his labours. He was now writing, lecturing, and teaching chemistry. Rheumatism and acute inflammation ofthe eye next attacked him; and were treated by cupping, blisetring, andcolchicum. Unable himself to write, he went on preparing his lectures, which he dictated to his sister. Pain haunted him day and night, and sleep was only forced by morphia. While in this state of generalprostration, symptoms of pulmonary disease began to show themselves.
