What reading level is Jackanapes, Daddy Darwin's Dovecot And Other Stories book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
His mistress's right hand--absentlycaressing--quieted his feelings; and with the left she held theten-shilling piece between finger and thumb, and gazed thoughtfully atthe other bags as they squatted in a helpless row, with twine-tiedmouths hanging on all sides. It was only after anxious consultation withan account-book that the half-sovereign was exchanged for silver; thanksto the clothing-club bag, which looked leaner for the accommodation. Inthe three-halfpenny bag (which bulged with pence) ...some silver wasfurther solved into copper, and the charity bag was handsomely distendedbefore the whole lot was consigned once more to the table-drawer.
Any one accustomed to book-keeping must smile at this bag-keeping ofaccounts; but the parson's daughter could never "bring her mind" tokeeping the funds apart on paper, and mixing the actual cash. Indeed, she could never have brought her conscience to it. Unless she had takenthe tenth for "charity" from her dress and pocket-money in coin, and putit then and there into the charity bag, this self-imposed rule of theduty of almsgiving would not have been performed to her soul's peace.
