What reading level is Poor Boys' Chances book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
man who conducts it with his own hands, as Grant's father did.
Nor did the Ohio tannerj^s son have any early educa- tional advantages. He went to such schools as the village could, support, and learned reading, writing and arith- metic, but he did not distinguish himself. A great soldier is popularly supposed to be by nature a man who is fond of fighting, but young Grant's reputation was that of the most peaceable boy in the town. There was fighting blood in the family, for his grandfather was ...in the battle of Lexington, where was "fired the shot heard round the world'' and he remained a soldier throughout the Revolutionary War, but he was of the quality that does not fight for fighting's sake, but for what fighting will bring. Strangely enough — to boys, this is the only sort of fighting blood that never disgraces itself.
When Grant was about a year old his father moved to another town and went into business for himself, but the only visible improvement in his circumstances for a few years was in the new house, which had three rooms in- stead of two.
