What reading level is The Conscript Mother book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
It seemed as if the signora's last words were in every mind. "They say," she remarked sadly, "that it will take a great many lives to carry those strong mountain positions, many thousands each month, thou- sands and thousands of boys. . . .
All those mothers !" At that moment the window on the balcony above the entrance to the palace was flung open, and two lackeys brought out a red cloth which they hung over the stone bal- ustrade. Then the King and Queen, [4S] THE CONSCRIPT MOTHER followed by... the little prince and his sister, stepped forth and stood above us, looking down into the crowded faces. The King bowed his head to the cheers that greeted him from his people, but his serious face did not relax. He looked worn, old. Per- haps he, too, was thinking of those thousands of lives that must be spent each month to unlock the Al- pine passes which for forty years Austria had been fortifying ! . . . He bowed again in response to the hearty cries of Viva il Re ! The Queen bowed. The little black-haired prince by his father's side looked steadily down into the faces.
