What reading level is Addresses to Children book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
And now about somebody else who lived quite recently, and not, as Midas did, in olden times. There was an American gentleman who was said to be the richest man in the world. He worked, and worked, with the one idea of getting as much money as possible, trying, as king Midas did, to turn everything into gold. But at last, just like Midas, he was nearly starved to death, for his digestion got so bad, through his overworking himself in order to get rich, that he could eat nothing but just a little... milk-food. It was said that he envied the poorest man who had a good digestion even though he hadn't enough to eat. No, children, money doesn't make us happy, nor do carriages, nor do fine houses, nor silks and furs. Nothing makes us happy except being content with what we have.
Just let me tell you another story, one also about a king. This king must be nameless, because I don't know what his name was. Well, for some reason or another he was very miserable ; and, calling his wise men to him one day, he asked them to tell him what he could do in order to be happy.
