What reading level is The Children in the Wood book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
" The admirable Elia, in his Essays, makes mention of an old mansion-house in Norfolk, traditionally reported to have been the residence of the "cruel unkle;" and that, on a mantel, the whole story was carved in oak, " down to the Robin Red-breasts. " This precious relic was afterwards removed by some " foolish rich per- son, " to give place to one of more modern marble, of course, made " thick and slab;" and certainly the innovator deserved a souse, with his new shelf, into the Witches' Cauldr...on. Whether " the whole story, down to the Robin Red-breasts, " cut in box, be worthy of a better fate, is now respectfully submitted. It appears, by the name, as if the story were destined to be perpetuated in its present form, and that it could never be perfectly told, until the Babes were shewn, as Mr. HARVEY has shewn them, to be the real Children in the Wood. THE CHILDREN IN THE WOOD. Now ponder well, you parents deare, These wordes, which I shall write ; A doleful story you shall heare, In time brought forth to light : A gentleman of good account, In Norfolke dwelt of late, Who did in honour far surmount Most men of his estate.
