What reading level is Harriet And the Piper book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
The girl went about in a dream, sometimes imagining the meeting of husband and wife, sometimes trying to fancy Isabelle with her lover. As was inevitable, the older woman seemed to lose somethmg charming and intangible in this confession of definite weakness. To be adored by any man merely adds to her glory, but the instant she concedes him an inch, the Beauty throws down her halo, the whole affair becomes mundane and vulnerable. Harriet might have envied Isabelle once, now she saw her frail, f...orty, her woman's pride weak- ened by admitted passion, and was sorry for her. She had had all men at her feet, now she must feel herself fortunate if she could hold one.
And with Isabelle's shame came a wholesome sting of shame to Isabelle's companion. Harriet had seen nothing harmful in this affair a few days ago; it was the way of this world of theirs. But she felt within her 121 122 HARRIET AND THE PIPER now the awakening of something clean and stern; she found in her mind odd phrases and terms — "a married woman's duty," "her sense of honour," "owing it to her husband and children." It was for few women to enjoy the popularity that Isabelle had known.
