[LM_NET] Tar: Reading Level of Things Fall Apart

[Suzanne McRae <crlibrary@YAHOO.COM>]

Good Afternoon,
 
One of the English teachers would like to know the reading level of Things Fall 
Apart by Chinua Achebe.  The principal is challenging the book b/c she believes it 
is above their reading levels.  He teaches on the high school level, in other words 
his classes are mixed with 10th graders up to 12+.. I looked in Books in Print, but 
it did not give me the reading level.  Any ideas??  If you do find it, would you 
mind providing me with the source?
 
Thanks so much.
 
Sincerely,
Suzanne McRae
