What reading level is Young Petrella book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
He built generously (for he had a wife and eleven children to house), in brickwork, cream-painted stucco and imitation Bath stone; and he surrounded his home with a garden and a high iron fence. Those were spacious days, when tea-brokers from Mincing Lane drove out to their mansions on Muswell Hill, and the nightingale sang on Highside.
The years went past, Highside descended in the social scale and Helenwood House descended with it, but more slowly for it was insulated from the march of time by... its high fence and by an ever-thickening jungle of shrubs and trees.
Its barrister-owner died, but the complex settlement which he had made lived after him, and the tentacles of the law gripped Helenwood House more tightly even than the ivy which now enshrouded it. Had it been taken in hand in the twenties or thirties it might have been rescued, and opened up and turned into an apartment house (for which there is great demand in Highside), but by this time it was under the control of trustees and was occupied by two elderly ladies, and five cats.
