What reading level is The Mark book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
They were finally gagged with great wads of rags rolled tight and forced between their teeth, after which their jaws were firmly bandaged. Thus, helpless, they were hoisted one at a time by the fellows who had bound them, carried down the road a short distance, and dumped unceremoniously into a convenient ditch. And then, as the night fell, the whole villainous crew went halting and floundering away, with their rags napping and their lotahs and bottles and pots jangling, and their dogs leaping ...and yelping before Digitized by Microsoft® 252 THE MARK and behind; and one heard the din of their going echoing faintly long after the kindly night had shut them out of sight. Now one of the unfortunate gentlemen left in the ditch managed, after much gagging and straining, which came near dislocating his jaw, to work aside the bandage covering his mouth, and later to dis- entangle his teeth from the wad of dirty rag which had been forced between them. The first use he made of his free jaw was to curse his comrade fluently, and for a time with much patience, for getting them in such a mess ; but the monotony of wasting his efforts on a man who could not stimulate him by returning his compliments finally grew oppressive.
