What reading level is Old School book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
Kennedy won the presidency, George Kellogg won the audience with Robert Frost. Our paper printed his poem in a box on the front page, a dramatic monologue in which an old farmer feels the bite of mortality on the first cold day of autumn. George had used an odd mixture of tones. At one moment the farmer is lyrically drooling over the sight of the hired girl milking a cow:Old rooster struts the rafters while the barncat begsMewing at her feet in the stall where Flossie stands,As with swift hard s...trokes of her soft white handsShe pulls the foaming cream into the pail between her legs.Then a few stanzas down he’s a terse fatalist:Corn’s high in the silo, hay’s stacked in the loft,Cordwood’s halfway to the roof, doorcracks plugged with clay.So let come what will, hard ground, short day,I’ve done all I am able—and after all, the snow is soft.The poem was entitled, shamelessly, “First Frost.”In his telephone interview about the poem he’d chosen over all the others, Robert Frost told our reporter: Young Kellogg has had some fun at this old man’s expense, and I guess this old man can stand some fun, if it isn’t too expensive.
