What reading level is The Shellback book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
" He kept his eye on each of us. The captain of the Elgin suggested we should have a spell, and The Ancient Mariner. 99 something to wet our whistles. He even got out the lemonade basket, and a couple of pannikins, but our amiable gentleman would hear of nothing but constant bending to it.
" D 'em ! what right have they to be thirsty ? I'm not thirsty," he said. " Let 'em drink when we land." We undoubtedly were thirsty, and we were nearly three hours getting across, during which time we did no...t get a moment's respite from pulling. I thought the Englishman would have ordered his boys to rest, but I suppose he concluded that for the present they were under our captain's orders, so they suffered as well as we.
As soon as we had beached the boat and carried up the anchor on to the sand, we took out the provisions and brought them to the ground selected for the picnic. Then, before we were allowed anything to eat or drink, we were sent up to the town to order down pumpkins, green corn (cobs of unripe maize), and other vegetables.
