What reading level is Polly's War book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
Lying back comfortably on the pillows with Belinda’s head warm against his shoulder, this, he thought, is as good a time as any. He handed it to her and watched as she read it with dawning disbelief.
Belinda sat up. ‘It’s from a Harry Entwistle, says he has a shop on Collier Street and that all the other carpenters in the district have signed a petition to stop us opening.’ Benny took the letter from her hand and tore it up, letting the pieces fall over the floor. ‘Aye, trade’s bad, he says, and... they can’t afford the competition. Says we might as well pack up and go somewhere else.’ Belinda stared at him, devastated. ‘Move? After all the work we’ve put in here. We can’t do that. Where would we move to? I’ve searched the area with a fine tooth-comb and there are no other shops to let anywhere. None that we can afford.’ ‘We’re staying put,’ Benny said, perversely determined to hang on to the shop he’d so despised, now that it was under threat. ‘Nobody pushes me about, not if I’ve owt to do wi’ the matter.’ Had Benny been aware that he owed this particular piece of misfortune to his father-in-law, he might have known better how to fight it.
