What reading level is Dick Onslow book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
I felt very thankful that I was not a miner, either in acoal, iron, or lead mine.
Sometimes as I was working away I fancied that I head the voices of myfriends calling to me, but when I stopped there was again a perfectsilence. On I went again, but still it appeared as if I was as far asever from getting out of my prison. I had now cut my shaft as high as Icould reach, so I had to make steps in the walls on which I could standwhile I worked upwards. This I did till I had got up a dozen feet orm...ore. It showed me the great thickness of the block of ice which hadfallen above me, and how mercifully I had been preserved, for had itcome upon me, it would have crushed me as thin as a pancake. I was nowexposed to a new danger: should I fall as I was tunnelling away, Ishould break my legs. I already had removed, as I said, a considerableportion of the ice I had cut out to the other end of the cavern. I nowsaw that it would be better not to remove any more; so, securing myrifle at my back, and taking my pike in my left hand, which indeed Ifound very useful in keeping me firm, I determined not again to descend, but to continue working upwards as long as I had strength left.
