What reading level is The Three Black Pennys book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
An opening had, ofcourse, been offered to Howat Penny when he had definitely decided notto settle in Philadelphia, where the Pennys had always been associated, and pursue the law. And, at first, he had occupied a desk in the Provostcounting rooms. But he had soon grown discontented, he disliked routineand a clerk's condition; and, after two years of annoyed effort, withdrew to lead a more congenial existence on a secure, adequateincome. "It was a mistake, " he said aloud, in a decided, clearly ...modulatedvoice, gazing blankly into the warm stillness of the room. It had comepartly from his innate impatience with any inferior state whatever, andpart from the old inability to identify himself with the practicalitiesof existence. He had always viewed with distaste the apparentlynecessary compromises of successful living; the struggle for money, commercial supremacy, seemed unendurably ugly; the jargon andsubterfuges of financial competition beneath his exacting standard ofpersonal dignity. That had been his expression at the time--permeated byan impatient sense of superiority; but now he felt that there wassomething essential lacking in himself.
