What reading level is Other Stories book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:

Some of them did so, and LEGEND OF ST. DDEJRFEL. 125 were rewarded for their compliance with the wishes of the King; others refused, and were speedily thrust out, whipped, and sometimes burned, to the great delight of all good Protestants, who little foresaw that they themselves would have to undergo the same pleasures when the bigot Queen Mary had in due time succeeded to her tyrant father's throne.
In those days there was a regular crusade against re- ligious houses, images, and the shrines o
...f saints, and not a few relics, which had been the objects of reverence or of superstition to many thousands of people, were burned at Smithfield and elsewhere, whilst the offerings which pious people had for ages past presented at the shrines, were gathered together to fill the coffers of the King, who thus found that his alteration in the religious establishment of the country was not unattended with pecuniary advantages to himself, which were exceedingly satisfactory.
So when the fame of St. Dderfel reached London, ac- companied by reports that his shrine was not without some rich offerings, it was determined by the ruling powers that a commission of inquiry should be sent down to look after the matter, and, if needs be, destroy the abomination.
