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

Riley said. “Don’t worry.”
“No no no,” said our mother.
“It’s just she bleeds every month.”
“Shut up,” said Mert. “Shut up.”
“But—”
“Shut up!”
Riley put a fist to his mouth.
Mert said, high-voiced, “It’s not her period.”
“She isn’t dead!” shrieked Riley.
“Shut up,” she said.
“She just forgot to wear a pad.”
“Goddammit, Riley!”
“No, but she’s—”
“Make him shut up,” Mert wailed.
“Come here, Coyote,” I said and crushed his face to my chest. “Be quiet, okay?”
“But she’s not,” said Riley into the bang
... of my heart. “I need to go check if she’s still having her period.”
I put my palm on his head. “No, stay here.” His hair felt hot, like at the beach.
Mert dialed, then stared at the receiver. “You,” she sputtered.
I took the phone. At my father’s friendly “Yello?” I started to cry.
“Pettle? What’s wrong?”
“Um, Fod?”
“What happened? Where’s your mother?”
I pushed the receiver back at Mert, who told him to come home.
