What reading level is The Run for the Elbertas book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
Jimp Buckheart sent word to me by Father. “Come to the stir-off party, and take a night.”
Father chuckled as he told, knowing I had never stayed away from home. Father said, “Hit’s time you larnt other folks’ ways. Now, Old Gid Buckheart’s family lives fat as horse traders. He’s got five boys, tough as whang leather, though nary a one’s a match to Gid himself; and he’s the pappy o’ four girls who’re picture-pieces.” He teased as he whittled a molassy spoon for me. “Mind you’re not captured by on...e o’ Gid’s daughters. They’re all pretty, short or tall, every rung o’ the ladder.” He teased enough to rag his tongue. I grunted scornfully, but I was tickled to go. I’d heard Jimp had a flying-jinny, and kept a ferret.
Jimp met me before noon at their land boundary. Since last I’d seen him he had grown; and he jerked his knees walking and cocked his head birdwise, imping his father. He was Old Gid Buckheart over again. He didn’t stand stranger. “Kin you keep secrets?”
