What reading level is The Next to Nothing House book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
And this is such a delightful floor, with the old, old, irregular boards, some of them more than twenty 60 THE NEXT-TO-NOTHING HOUSE inches wide. Even when my ship comes in, or the Powers That Be see fit to bestow ui^on me the suavity of poHshed oak, never, never shall this floor be changed! Such a nice color it is, too. Spruce was over-yellow, and brown too dark and uninteresting, so I just mixed them both together and stirred and stirred, and the result is a sunlit effect, precisely the hue I... wanted; for the study had to glow, to deepen the roses of the parlour into a crimson, to warm the buffs of the dining-room into richer tones — and all to live up to our splendid, gorgeous coverlet, an heir- loom from the eighteenth-century Lowlands, which hangs like a gallant banner on the wall.
No mediaeval chatelaine ever was prouder of her costly tapestries of haute-lisse than I am of this simple, homespun web. The pattern is very old, far older than the coverlet, I suppose; the bow-and-arrow design might date back even to Anglo-Saxon days.
