What reading level is Troubling a Star book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
Stay awake.
I moved slightly away from the tall tower of ice against which I was leaning, and swayed on my feet. Even with my eyes wide open, my mind seemed to slide the way it does just before you go to sleep, when you’re not actually dreaming but you aren’t thinking ordinary, rational thoughts, either.
Actions have consequences. But what had I done that would lead me to an iceberg in Antarctica? Times and places slid in and out, maybe the way they did for Aunt Serena when she was tired. The se...al said that the past and present converged in— I jerked awake. The seal was still off, fishing. If I lay down and slept, I would die. As long as I stayed awake, there was a possibility I would be rescued. I’d put my family through enough grief, and as for Aunt Serena, she’d given me the tickets to Antarctica, the trip was her gift to me, and if anything happened to me, she— She’d had enough grief. I couldn’t add to it. I shaded my eyes and scanned the horizon, keeping up hope.
When we reached the ground Captain Nausinio came up to us, lugging a case of Coke, which Cook and Sam and I helped him pass around, and we all drank thirstily.
