What reading level is The House By Princes Park book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
They could sew the neatest of seams, embroider, cook, clean, launder, even garden. They were respectful, healthy, extremely moral, highly religious, and had perfect manners.
The girls made ideal housemaids, nursemaids, cooks, seamstresses. Well adjusted and apparently content with their lot, they had been brought up, if not with love, then with kindness. Physical punishment was strictly forbidden in the convent.
Their education was confined to subjects that would be of use to girls whose role in... life would be to serve others until they eventually married a man from the same class as themselves, usually another servant. Apart from domestic skills, they were taught to read and write and do simple arithmetic. They learnt a smattering of history and geography. It was considered a waste for the girls to study science, literature, art, current affairs, or politics. No one was likely to ask a servant girl what she thought of the situation in Russia or which Shakespeare play was her favourite, though she could, if asked, recite the catechism, reel off the names of the last ten Popes, sing several hymns in Latin, and accurately describe the fourteen Stations of the Cross which she had made every Good Friday for as far back as she could remember.
