What reading level is Pictures of the Peak book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
" We return to lounge lazily over the time-stained bridge that spans the Derwent where it receives the A shop. From the opposite side the Lady-bower Brook adds its trouty current : a shining rivulet gushing in gladness from the flinty heart of the hills, glassing the sky in secretive pools, and brightening the banks with its dimpled beauty. It is crossed at Chilbadge Bridge, and the rocky ravine down which the rapid stream courses presents many pictures to detain the painter. Under these cliffs..., during the memor- able snowstorm in February, 1888, two brothers were buried beneath an avalanche. One of the lads was frozen to death ; the other barely survived the terrible adventure. Toll-houses were snowed up ; the drifts were ten feet deep ; flocks of sheep perished on the moors, while the inn at Sparrow Pit was snowed up to the roof, a tunnel having to be cut through the snow to rescue the inmates. Yorkshire Bridge, with its little inn, is the next objective point, and here The Descent of the Derwent, 187 we are a mile from Bamford, with bold and daring escarp- ments softened by the pastoral stretches of meadow that in- tervene between rock and river.
