What reading level is Stray Thoughts for Girls book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
Avoid Religious gossip about the services and the clergy. Make it a rulefor yourself, wherever you are, never to criticize the clergyman or thesermon. Very likely you might say something to the point--it might do himgood if he heard it! That will not happen, and what _will_ happen is, thatyou will do yourself harm by being critical or amused, instead of makingyour mind devout. If your "mind" knows that, whatever it may notice inchurch, your "will" is not going to allow it to speak of, then your...critical part goes to sleep. A joke loses its amusingness if one is notgoing to tell it, and you are then able to think only of your Prayers andResolutions.
Purity and Reverence are the two main things in talk, but how about Sense?
There is one class of girl I have sometimes noticed with amused regret--Idare say you have too--though she is by no means so objectionable as theother kind I spoke of. She is a would-be child of nature. She has nothoughtfulness or weight about her; she is an engaging kitten who existson the rather inadequate stock-in-trade of nice eyes; she is quiteirresponsible and useless, and tells you so, in an ingenuous way, forwhich her nearest and dearest long to box her ears!
