What reading level is Touchstone book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
It must have weighed twenty pounds. Closer inspection showed the preposterous garment to be at least a hundred years old, but it didn’t take a man of Grey’s sensitivity to perceive the lad’s enormous pleasure in it—he seemed two inches taller than he had in mufti. The uniform was actually just the coat, since the trousers beneath it were modern and black rather than the knee-breeches that would have been more appropriate, but with the hem coming past his knees even in the front, the anachronism ...was hardly noticeable.
Stuyvesant half expected to have the young man bawl their names into the hallway, maybe with a blast of trumpets for good measure.
Instead, he just yanked the door open and tried hard to present a face of dignity.
“You look splendid, Alex,” Grey told him.
“It’s not too much?” he asked, sounding less like a manservant than one schoolboy to another.
“Not in the least.”
“We found it in one of the dressing-up trunks in the attic—the Hurleighs used to put on plays during the holidays, worthy of the West End, they were.
