What reading level is The Counsels of a Worldly Godmother book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
The girls who do the things that have what might be called a succes de scandale are not really the most important or the most successful of a season, but merely those who have sacrificed their good name to notoriety. They have their little hour of intoxication, — on very poor tipple, too, I should say! — and if they are of any genuine character, they must soon come to be ashamed of acts which would hardly be possible among shop-girls.
Now the question is, how far girls who do ill-bred pranks ar...e approved by their own mates. You certainly would not think of join- ing the ranks of those who get talked about for A WORLDLY GODMOTHER 99 this sort of thing ; and these girls are really condemned by their peers, if not so openly or so emphatically as by their elders, yet none the less surely. The question comes, don't you see, as to where the line is to be drawn be- tween the acts your contemporaries approve and those they only tolerate. I am not advis- ing you to be singular, except in ways that will of themselves so command admiration or re- spect that you can afford to persist in them, no matter if you are the only girl who has the sense to see that they are proper.
