What reading level is Round the Wonderful World book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
One of themwas this gate. The other three places had been partially broken in bythe guns, and there was a chance for those heroic madmen to get through, but this was entire. The assaulting party had first to break a way inand then get through.
And they did it!
The five told off to make the breach were Lieutenants Home and Salkeld, and Sergeants Carmichael, Burgess, and Smith. Some carried bags ofgunpowder, and others, the fire to set them off. It was daylight whenthey ran towards the gate acros...s a single plank spanning the ditch, sothat they had to go one by one in full range of the enemy's fire fromthe walls. The marvel is that any lived to reach the gate alive. Whenone fell another leaped forward to carry on his task. The bags wereflung down, and those who placed them tumbled back into the ditch, whiletheir comrades set the powder alight and rolled down too. Out of thewhole party only Home and Smith survived. The wicket of the gate wasburst open by the explosion, and the storming party, also crossing thatsingle plank, made for it, got inside, and beat back the foe, meetingtheir comrades, who had burst in at other points, inside.
