What reading level is The Crossing book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
"Acrost the Mississippi, to the lands of the Spanish King," said Polly Ann.
"And where in those dominions ? " I demanded.
"John Saunders took 'em as far as the Falls," Polly Ann answered. " He 'lowed they was goin' to St. Louis.
But they never said a word. I reckon they'll be hunted as long as they live." I had thought of them much as I lay on' my back recov- ering from the fever, — the fever for which Mrs. Temple was to blame. Yet I bore her no malice. And many other thoughts I had, probing ba...ck into childhood memo- ries for the solving of problems there.
" I knowed ye come of gentlefolks, Davy," Polly Ann had said when we talked together.
So I was first cousin to Nick, and nephew to that self- ish gentleman, Mr. Temple, in whose affectionate care I had been left in Charlestown by my father. And my father ? Who had he been ? I remembered the speech that he had used and taught me, and how his neighbors had dubbed him "aristocrat." But Mrs. Temple was gone, and it was not in likelihood that I should ever see her more.
