What reading level is The Ninth Year of a Deaf Child's Life book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:


A physical comparison of deaf and hearing children would be meaningless without some test of their comparative available ac- tivity. As no formulsB of ordinary child capability have been made, and as apparatus was lacking for muscular tests, I fell back •upon contests between my ten deaf boys and picked hearing boys of the same age.
The tests were, I am aware, somewhat unscientific, but per- haps, serve the purpose of general comparison better than as though I had been confined t% the use of ap
...paratus without the spirit of contest.
Owing also to the loose nature of the tests, I am obliged to state results generally, rather than in exact terms. I do not feel, 46 however, that this vagueness vitiates the results, for repeated trials yielded the same general outcome, and I may say for them, that they have considerably altered my own previous opinions, formed without due foundation.
I had imagined from the robust appearance of deaf boys, that they would prove more than a match, physically, for hearing boys of the same age, whereas I had not the least expectation that the latter would be worsted in memory tests, particularly word memo- ry.
