What reading level is The Horse Tamer book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
“Some horsemen say,” he told Hank, “that the best remedy for a balker like this colt is to take osselets, or small bones, from his legs, dry and grate them fine, then blow a thimbleful into his nostrils. He’ll then go off without trouble.” Bill picked several apples and put them into his pockets. “But I’ve had better luck with these,” he added, laughing.
“But will the dried osselets work?” Hank asked curiously.
“About like ammonia or red pepper. They’re only temporary aids. They disconcert a bal...ker long enough to get him to start, but they don’t keep him goin’.”
A few minutes later Bill led the gray colt, wearing harness, down a back road. He stopped and started him repeatedly, each time rewarding the colt with a bit of apple and stroking his neck and head.
“There’s nothin’ wrong with this colt that some kindness won’t help,” he told Hank. “Winning a young horse’s confidence is always the first step. This fellow’s had too much abuse.”
Bill untied the long reins from the harness and for the first time stood a little to the side and rear of the colt.
