What reading level is London Scenes book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
On to a sylvan glade (backcloth) a little maiden, disguised as a Cherookee Indian, and mounted upon a bicycle, dashes with a wild whoop. Others follow her, and presently the stage is filled with whirling figures, ap- parently freed from the law of gravity, and hovering in all strange postures over and round about their handle-bars. But the house has had its fill of trick cyclists, and mere cleverness only bores. There are whistles, claps, and roaring, until the poor Cherookee maidens wheel to t...he footlights in line, dis- 3 34 LONDON SCENES mount, bow with a painful, nervous smile, and the curtain sweeps down on them. * Turn succeeds turn with varying fortune. A middle-aged girl, with thickly powdered face, abbreviated skirts, and centipedal energy, is desired to ''go home and look after the kids ! " A solemn lady of generous pro- portions, who wails sorrowfully, is greeted with dog-yelps and the invitation not to ''tell us, missus, if it hurts yer ! " But a pair of young athletes, disguised in lounge suits, who dance as if moved by one string, and endure the heartaches of a thousand double-shuffles, bring down the house.
