What reading level is The Young King. the Star-Child book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
there was indeed a thing of gold lying on the white snow. So he has- tened towards it, and stooping down, placed hi,s hands upon it ; and it was a cloak of golden tissue, curiously wrought with stars, and wrapped in many folds. And he cried out to his comrade that he had found the treasure that had fallen from the sky, and when his comrade had come up they sat them down in the snow, and loosened the folds of the cloak that they might divide the pieces of gold. But, alas ! no gold was in it, nor... silver, nor, indeed, treasure of any kind, but only a little child who was asleep.
Z6 THE STAR-CHILD.
And one of them said to the other: "This is a bitter ending to our hope, nor have we any- good fortune ; for what doth a child profit to a man? Let us leave it here, and go our way, seeing that we are poor men, and have children of our own whose bread we may not give to another." But his companion answered him : " Nay, but it were an evil thing to leave the child to perish here in the snow, and, though I am as poor as thou art, and have many mouths to feed, and but little in the pot, yet will I bring it home with me, and my wife shall have care of it." So very tenderly he took up the child, and wrapped the cloak around it to shield it from the harsh cold, and made his way down the hill to the village, his comrade marvelling much at his foolishness and softness of heart.
