What reading level is My Story book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:

" I have written several Manx novels since that first one, calling up as from an inexhaustible granary the crops of incident and character which I had unconsciously gathered in my youth, and perhaps it is by these books, what- ever their shortcomings, that my name is best known to the public in general, but it has al- ways been a source of pathetic amusement to me to remember how the island itself received 310 MY FIRST MANX XOVPX its first novelist. If novels had been written about it before, t...hat fact had made no impres- sion upon its consciousness, and if dialect poems of great raciness and charm had been published by Brown, the rumour of them had unhappily not gone far. But now for the first time a writer of story-books had penetrated into its households, getting into the heart of the country, going into the farm houses, and de- liberately sitting down by the turf fire in the " chollagh. " The outside world cannot under- stand what that means ; but we who are of the soil and have visions of stem old Churchmen and grim old Methodists in every village, who never saw a novel in their lives, and would not have touched one with the longest " grip " if it had been tossed over the tail-board of a cart, can realise the feeling with which the island must have grasped the fact that a degenerate son of her own was (as the worthy preacher on the "plan-beg" put it) "actually earning his living by telling lies, " It was not at once, however, that our sober, class-leading island reconciled itself to the idea that these novels were fictions at all.
