What reading level is Pebbles On the Shore [by] Alpha of the Plough book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
I look back twentyyears, and it seems only a span. And yet how remote fifty seemed in thosedays! It was so remote as to be hardly worth thinking about. To be fiftywas to be among the old fellows, to be on the shelf, to have become anantiquity.
And now here am I at fifty, and so far from feeling like an antiquity, Ifeel as much of a young fellow as at any time of my life. I had feared thatwhen middle age overtook me I should feel middle-aged and full of sadlongings for the old toys and the old p...leasures. How would life betolerable when cricket, for example, had ceased to play an important partin it? Never again to have the ecstasy of a drive along "the carpet" to theboundary or, with a flash of the arm, snapping an opponent in the slips. What a dreary desolation life must be, stripped of those joys! And on thecontrary I find that the spirit of youth is no more dependent on cricketthan it is on the taste for lollipops. It consists in the contentedacceptance of the things that are possible to us.
