What reading level is The Christmas Child book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
The neighbours werecoming in to inquire about the rumours that had reached them, and Nathanwas away, and Miss Priscilla had shut herself up in her room, taking nonotice whatever of any appeals to her to open the door or to speak.
Happy as it was to Joan, to old Nathan it was the saddest Christmas Dayof his life. He was seeking some trace or tidings of the baby's mother;and his weary feet, made heavy by his heavy heart, trod many a mile thatshort wintry day in quest of her. It could be no one el...se but Rhoda whohad laid the child in the manger. She had never been heard of since AuntPriscilla had answered her first and only letter, asking forgiveness, bya bitter, stern, and terrible command that she must never show her faceagain at home, or dare to ask for any help, whatever misery befell her.
But Nathan's search was all in vain. No one had seen her down in thevillage, or in the scattered dwellings far and wide upon the mountains. But more than one had hinted to him that there were places, not faraway, where the cliffs overhung the sea; and as he returned sorrowfullyhomewards he could hear the sad moaning and sobbing of the sea followinghim through the stillness of the night air.
