What reading level is The First One book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
"Stiff"was perhaps the word.
They began with grapefruit, Edith and Mother serving quickly, efficiently from the kitchen, then sitting down at the table. He lookedat Mother as he raised his first spoonful of chilled fruit, and said, "Younger than ever. " It was nothing new; he'd said it many many timesbefore, but his mother had always reacted with a bright smile and a quipsomething like, "Young for the Golden Age Center, you mean. " This timeshe burst into tears. It shocked him. But what shocked... him even more wasthe fact that no one looked up, commented, made any attempt to comforther; no one indicated in any way that a woman was sobbing at the table.
He was sitting directly across from Mother, and reached out and touchedher left hand which lay limply beside the silverware. She didn't moveit--she hadn't touched him once beyond that first, quick, strangely-coolembrace at the door--then a few seconds later she withdrew it and let itdrop out of sight.
So there he was, Henry Devers, at home with the family.
