What reading level is Prose Fancies book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
You think that because a donkey has only two vowel sounds wherewith to express his emotions, he has no emotions to express. But let me tell you, sir . . .' But here we both burst out laughing — ' You Golden Ass ! ' I said, ' take a munch of these roses ; perhaps they will restore you.' ' No,' he resumed, ' I am quite serious.
I have for many years past made a study of donkeys — high-stepping critics call it the study of Human Nature — however, it 's the same thing — and I must say that the more... I study them the more I love them. There is nothing so well worth studying as the misunderstood, for the very reason that everybody thinks he under- stands it. Now, to take another instance, most people think they have said the last word on a goose when they have called it "a goose!" — but let me tell you, sir . . .' But here again we burst out laughing — 'Dear goose of the golden eggs,' I said, vray leave to discourse on geese to-night I20 PROSE FANCIES — though lovely and pleasant would the discourse be — to-night I am all agog for donkeys.' ' So be it,' said my friend, ' and if that be so, I cannot do better than tell you the story of the donkey that loved a star — keeping for another day the no less fascin- ating story of the goose that loved an angel.' By this time I was, appropriately, all ears.
