What reading level is The Anti-Slavery Alphabet book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
I I is the Infant, from the arms Of its fond mother torn, And, at a public auction, sold With horses, cows, and corn. J J is the Jail, upon whose floor That wretched mother lay, Until her cruel master came, And carried her away. K K is the Kidnapper, who stole That little child and mother-- Shrieking, it clung around her, but He tore them from each other. L L is the Lash, that brutally He swung around its head, Threatening that "if it cried again, He'd whip it till 'twas dead. " M M is the Merc...hant of the north, Who buys what slaves produce-- So they are stolen, whipped and worked, For his, and for our use. N N is the Negro, rambling free In his far distant home, Delighting 'neath the palm trees' shade And cocoa-nut to roam. O O is the Orange tree, that bloomed Beside his cabin door, When white men stole him from his home To see it never more. P P is the Parent, sorrowing, And weeping all alone-- The child he loved to lean upon, His only son, is gone! Q Q is the Quarter, where the slave On coarsest food is fed, And where, with toil and sorrow worn, He seeks his wretched bed.
