What reading level is Mike Marble book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
Billy Bolton was a great fellow at that kind of sport. Billy livedwith Uncle Mike. He did _chores_--to use a word common enough in NewEngland, though, possibly, not an elegant one--on Mr. Marble's farm;that is, he went for the cows and drove them to pasture, fed the pigsand poultry, brought water and chips for the "women folks, " and ran oferrands. It was a favorite sport with Billy, in the summer time, to hunt forbumble-bees' nests, and to "take them up, " as the process of capturingthem was c...alled. Uncle Mike did not like to indulge the boy in thiskind of sport. Perhaps he thought it a cruel and unfeeling kind offun; and I know he had too kind a heart, to see a boy growing up inhis family with a taste for cruelty to animals of any kind. At anyrate, the danger connected with the sport was enough to condemn it inthe mind of Mr. Marble. He had forbidden Billy and his own children having any thing to dowith the sport. Still, it seemed Billy found means to amuse himself, now and then, in a sly way, by taking up a bumble-bees' nest.
