What reading level is Scenes of My Childhood book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
Gray old trunks and gnarled old branches, Veterans of the stormy years, Tried by winter s avalanches, Scarred by Jove s electric spears ; Rent and gaping ranks remind of Comrades fallen by the way ; Still the Springtime bugle wind of Muster finds them in array. When the leaf-buds bursting, send a Tremor forth upon the breeze, Covering with a verdant splendor All the low old apple-trees, How the heart with gladness thrilling, Welcomes them to life once more ; How the birds come back a-trilling H...ome, from some far foreign shore. Bluebirds in their hollows nesting, Red-breast robins all the day Singing, chirping, scolding, jesting, Noisy as the tufted jay. Showers of blossoms softly sifting Fleck the close-cropped turf below, Snow of June, its pink-tinged drifting Stolen from late sunset s glow. Here when summer days were mellow Branches curved with goodly prize, Russet, red, and green, and yellow, Fairer than met Eden s eyes ; Astrakhan and Summer Sweeting, Red and gold, the sweet and sour, Fragrant-scented, toothsome eating, Brightened many a childhood hour.
