What reading level is The Children And the Pictures book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:

" " But you must define poetry, Sir, " said Miss Ridge, " or, at least, what it means to you. " " Poetry, Madam, is the perception of what is beautiful, not the perception of what is humorous or sad. And I find this poetry in the pictures by Cotman, because he shows the wide sky, and the warm red earth, and poplars topping the horizon. The limbs of trees, and the flight of clouds, and quiet field labour. Such pictures give a * temperate show of objects that endure. ' And this must please those ...who seek the perception of the beautiful. Can you compare such a picture to one that shows a village tavern, a debtor's prison, or an errand-boy ? Equally true, you may reason. It may be. But beautiful no.
" Look at the pictures by Bonington ; cannot you see the sands glisten, and hear the waves ? And the fishwife who is walking there, do we not know that as she steps the sands press white beneath her, to darken as the moisture re-asserts itself beneath her footfall, by the margin of the sea ? And the sea-piece by Turner.
