What reading level is The Lost Dryad book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
I will take you to the lock-up. You must be crazy ! But they will take care of you there and, at any rate, will dress you properly. " The poor dryad trembled from head to foot. She did not know what a lock-up was, but she knew it must be a terrible place, and she had never seen anyone look so cruel as this man. He had already seized her by the arm, and if his grasp should become tighter, she believed her arm would break in two.
Poor, weak, beautiful dryad ! What could she do?
THE LOST DRYAD HE ...thought of something.
It was her only hope!
It must be remembered that there is a peculiar property pertaining to the kiss of a dryad.
Whenever a dryad kisses a human be- ing, that person becomes ten years young- er. So all good mothers are very careful to keep their children away from large oak trees. If a girl, of a dozen years, were to sit in the shade of one of these trees, she might attract the attention of an affectionate tree dweller; and then, if this dryad should kiss her, the little toddler of two years might go home — if per- chance, she remembered where she lived — and astound her parents.
