What reading level is Under the Trees book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
Her love for Sarah, and her filial love, made her faithful as a sister and a child ; but there was a trait of character in which her sister, with all their sympathy, did not share. It was requisite, this contrast, to make them two. There was individuality, notwithstanding the kin-tie of spirit binding them as one, in a deep, earnest, true-hearted love that knew no break or change. But I am dwelling on these features of the children while the mother is dying. I was walking up and down the piazza..., thinking of the awful work death was making in this house ; of the wondrous love that bound mother and daughters, now to be no barrier in the way of this fell de- stroyer, half wishing I had the power to stay his arm, ' and drive him out of the paradise he was about to blast 204 UNDER THE TREES.
