To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
It was due to her thrift, too, that there was always a little roll of milk and egg money in the house to meet emergencies. You have seen that there were tasks for the children. How far this was the result of a desire to forestall Satan, how far because the parents believed in the real value of working, who knows ? There were chickens to be fed, flower-beds to be weeded, carpet rags to sew, knitting to do, seams to be sewed over and over. In some magical way the tasks were managed so that they s...eemed more like play than drudgery. The "five Page fifty-five times round" to be knitted was converted into a race for the end, as excit- ing as any progressive game. To care for the chickens was a treat, for the caretaker had a percentage of the harvest and so incidentally learned a little about business methods. The morning walk to the pasture was made pleasant by permission to linger for a bunch of violets or a cup of wild strawberries. Then there was plenty of play for its own sake, though it was long years before teachers were reading books on Play as a Factor in Education.
