What reading level is Ponies And All About Them book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
The night clothing must not be put on until the body has had time to cool, otherwise the pony will be liable to get a chill. Some grooms and proprietors will raise objections to this method of grooming, and probably accuse the author of encouraging idleness and negligence. No matter whatsoever accusations be levelled, the system advocated requires no further ratification than that of truth. Experience proves it to be the best, and one that has the additional advantage of being extremely conveni...ent. The alternative plan is to remove the mud with the scraper (though the curry comb is often used for this purpose), then sponge the soiled parts with either tepid or cold water, afterwards use wisps of straw until the body and limbs are dry, which is no easy task. By the word dry I mean dry, and this is just where the trouble arises. This word is capable of rather different interpretation when applied to horse and man, or, at anyrate, so far as some grooms are concerned. I cannot speak too strongly against wash- ing a pony all over even with cold water (excepting in case of skin disease, etc.), but washing with hot water is an unpardonable offence to my mind.
