What reading level is Gudgekin the Thistle Girl book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
For a man might be walking the road at dusk, speaking casually of this and that with a man he had met that day in town—some kind old peasant with a gentle face, or some traveling tinker with stories to tell, some friendly creature who would never harm a fly—and suddenly, quick as the blink of an eye, the stranger might stand transformed to, for instance, an owl. It was unnatural, illogical, a violation of order—though the shape-shifters, it is true, did no one any damage.
The emperor sent out an... urgent call for aid through the whole of the empire, and he swore that the person who could cleanse the empire of the terrible shape-shifters would have as his reward whatever he dared to name.
Now in a certain village there lived a woodchopper who had grown too old and feeble to chop wood. Everyone knew him as a troublesome fellow, unpredictable and cranky. When people tried to reason with him, all the old woodchopper would say was “Bah!” When they tried to organize some community effort, the woodchopper would lock his doors and refuse to come out.
