What reading level is The Dragon And the Jewel book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
didn’t take place until well after midnight. Richard and Isabella took it all in good sport, both secretly relieved that the bride would not be stripped naked to prove she went to her marriage bed without blemish as she would have if she’d been an unwed virgin.
Eleanor hung back thinking perhaps Isabella would prefer to have her sisters accompany her to the nuptial tower, but William’s sister took hold of Eleanor’s hand and begged, “Please come with me—you’re the only one who can control Richard... and Henry if they start being outrageous.”
Eleanor cast her husband an apologetic glance and left the table with Isabella. As he rose to follow her a pain nearly cut him in half. It started at the top of his stomach, slashed up through his diaphragm, and stabbed into his chest wall and heart. He sat back down abruptly and sweat broke out upon his brow. Bones of Christ, he’d never experienced chest pain in his life except from battle wounds. What was amiss? He sat still for a minute, thankful none had observed his plight, then slowly, experimentally he tried to stand.
