What reading level is My Wife And I: Or, Harry Henderson's Story book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
" Come now, Mr. Henderson, we can't allow, our principal literary lion to be kept in secret places," said Miss Eva.
" You are expected to walk up and down and show your- self ; there are half a dozen girls to whom I have promised to present you." And in a moment I found myself standing in a brilliant circle of gay tropical birds of fashion, where beauty, or the equivalent of beauty, charmingness, was the rule, and not the exception. In foreign lands, my patriotic pride had often been fed by the... enthusiasm excited by my coun- trywomen. Tbe beauty and grace of American women, their success in foreign circles, has passed into a proverb; and in a New York company of young girls one is really dazzled by prettiness. It is not the grave, grand, noble typo of the Madonna and the Venus di Milo, but the delicate, briUiant, distracting prettiness of young birds, kittens, lambs, and flowers — something airy and fairy — belonging to youth and youthful feeling. You see few that promise to ripen and wax fairer in middle life ; but almost all are like THE YOUNG LADY PB.ILOSOPBER.
