What reading level is Give Me the Young book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
I leave it to others to make suggestions as to worship and ceremonial, doctrinal instruction, the study of the Bible, and above all the use of music to awake or quicken religious emotion. These, as it seems to me, are accessories of re- ligion, accessories which are indispensable for some temperaments and some types of mind, but not for others. The life and soul of religion, the essential element in it which no one can dispense with, is disinterested devotion, unselfish love. Children will teac...h themselves this greatest of all lessons, if we will make it possible for them to do so. If they do not teach it to themselves, it will never be taught. Let me, in conclusion, repeat what I said in the opening chapter that the need for religion, as I have interpreted the word, has never been so urgent as it is to-day. The world is sick unto death, and the malady from which it is suffering is, in a word, selfishness. Individual selfishness is rampant. The greed for gain and the thirst for pleasure are, perhaps, more insatiable and more general than they have ever been.
