What reading level is Balcony Stories book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
To her be the credit.
THE STORY OF A DAY It is really not much, the story; it is only the arrangement of it, aswe would say of our dresses and our drawing-rooms.
It began with the dawn, of course; and the skiff for our voyage, silvered with dew, waiting in the mist for us, as if it had floateddown in a cloud from heaven to the bayou. When repeated, this soundslike poor poetry; but that is the way one thinks at day dawn, when thedew is yet, as it were, upon our brains, and our ideas are still ha...lfdreams, and our waking hearts, alas! as innocent as waking babiesplaying with their toes.
Our oars waked the waters of the bayou, as motionless as a sleepingsnake under its misty covert--to continue the poetical language orthought. The ripples ran frightened and shivering into the rootythicknesses of the sedge-grown banks, startling the little birdsbathing there into darting to the nearest, highest rush-top, where, without losing their hold on their swaying, balancing perches, theyburst into all sorts of incoherent songs, in their excitement todivert attention from the near-hidden nests: bird mothers are so muchlike women mothers!
