What reading level is The Battery And the Boiler book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
" That evening Robin tried to console poor Letta in her disappointment atnot finding her mother, and Sam sought to comfort Stumps for the loss ofhis treasure. Neither comforter was very successful. Letta wept inspite of Robin, and Stumps absolutely refused to be comforted!
Next day, however, the tears were dried, and Letta became cheery againin the prospect of a visit to the Great Eastern.
But Stumps was no better. Indeed he seemed worse, and flatly refused toaccompany them on their trip, altho...ugh all the world of Bombay wasexpected to go.
"Stumps, Stumps, Down in the dumps! Down in the dumps so low--O!" Sang Jim Slagg as he waved his hand in farewell on quitting the hotel. "Good-bye, my boy, and get your spirits up before we return, if youcan. " "I'll try, " replied Stumps with a grim smile.
The event which stirred the city of Bombay to its centre at this timewas indeed a memorable one. The connecting of India with England directby a deep-sea cable was a matter of the greatest importance, because theland telegraph which existed at the time was wretchedly worked, passing, as it did, through several countries, which involved translation andre-translation, besides subjecting messages to needless delay on thepart of unbusiness-like peoples.
