What reading level is The Luck of the Leura book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
The Gin-Gin braves swarmed along the verandah through poor Mary's pretty parlour and out into the backyard. The two white women stood pale and silent in one corner of Mary's bedroom, expecting every moment to see a spear fly through the space between the door and the wall. They had drawn the thick curtains over the gap, and, as noiselessly as they could, placed the bed across the doorway in case there should be a rush. But the Gin-Gin blacks did not appear to desire the blood of white women. It... was the gins of the Bulli tribe who suffered. Heartrending cries rang in the still air of dawn; appeals to "Missis! White-Mary- missis, " mingling with yells, groans and the whizz of nulla-nullas in' action. . . . Mary put her fingers to her ears and tried to deafen herself to the cries of those poor gins and piccaninnies and of the few old men who had been left in the camp. But it was impossible to shut out the sound of the carnage.
207 The Luck of the Leura There was nothing that the white women could do.
