What reading level is The Crowstarver book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
Life in the Wylye Valley went on much as usual, and at the beginning of March 1940 Spider Sparrow once more took up his duties as crowstarver.
Percy had found work for him where he could throughout the winter, and now, with the sowing of both spring wheat and barley, there was once more need for his shouting and whistling and barking and banging, in his war against the ‘croaks’.
The spring corn was drilled on the lower grounds, not far from the lambing field, which meant that, though no longer a...ble to use the shelter in the spinney, Spider could if needs be take refuge in the shepherd’s hut.
On pouring wet days (and there were many) he stayed in the lambing-pens and helped his father, and at midday and in the evening they ate together, in the hut, the food which Kathie brought out for the two of them. At suppertime she waited till Spider had finished his meal and then took him back home with her.
‘You’ve got to get your proper sleep,’ she said.‘Your father has to do the best he can, this time of year, but you need yours, you’re growing so fast.’ And indeed Spider was shooting up, ‘like a runner bean’Tom said.
