What reading level is Englands Story for Children book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
There were thick, high walls all round the town, with great iron gates that were kept locked at night so that no enemies could get in.
When the people of Calais heard that King Edward with his great army was marching i86 ENGLAND'S STORY towards their town, they made haste to shut and lock their big gates, so that the English could not enter.
' Very well, ' said King Edward, when he found it impossible to take his soldiers into the town. - 'Very well; I am in no hurry. I mean to stay here with m...y soldiers until they choose to open the gates. If they will not let me in, I will not let them out. ' Now it was much worse to be locked in than to be locked out, you can see in a moment. The soldiers outside could have plenty of food brought them : they could change about if they were very tired, and when they were ill they could go back to England and others could take their place ; they could move about as they liked.
But the poor people inside were not so well off: they were very much cramped for room, and they soon became short of food, for there were so many of them that they quickly ate up what meat and bread, and fruit and vegetables they happened to have in Calais, when the gates were locked to keep the English out.
