What reading level is My Boyhood book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
I am not conscious of drawing into my shell, as the saying is, but I am conscious of a certain strain put upon me by those about me. I suppose my shell or my skin is too thin. Burbank experi- mented with walnuts trying to produce one with a thin shell, till he finally produced one with so thin a shell that the birds ate it up. Well, the birds eat me up for the same reason, if I don't look out. I am social but not gregarious. I do not thrive in clubs, I do not smoke, or tell stories, or drink, o...r dispute, or keep late hours. I am usually as solitary as a bird of prey, though I trust not for the same reason. I love MY BOYHOOD 75 so much to float on the current of my own thoughts. I mix better with farmers, work- ers, and country people generally than with professional or business men. Birds of a feather do flock together, and if we do not feel at ease in our company we may be sure we are in the wrong flock. Once while crossing the continent at some station in Minnesota a gray-bearded farmer-like man got on the train and presently began to look eagerly about the Pullman as if to see what kind of company he was in.
