What reading level is Chums of the Golden Vanity book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
Giving a final glance at the air-throttle contacts, Peter Kelso grasped the knob of the flywheel and swung the metal disc vigorously. Beyond a fairly loud gurgle, reminiscent of a burly Prussian swallowing soup, the motor remained silent.
Three times the young Officer repeated the opera- tion, each time with waning confidence. Then he removed the sparking plug, shook it, and displaced a minute quantity of petrol.
" Too rich a mixture, sir, " he explained.
" Haven't we any cheaper stuff on board...?" inquired the Old Man innocently. At this Cadet Merrifield tittered, and immediately tried to switch over to a badly simulated cough. Captain Corbold gave the luckless youngster one glance. Thereafter, for the rest of the performance and after, joy and laughter deserted the unlucky cadet.
Replacing the plug, Kelso tried again and again to coax the unresponsive motor into a state of activity. Beads of perspiration welled from his forehead and trickled in rivulets down his face.
" Are you sure you've turned the petrol on?" asked the Old Man.
