Answer:
I would consider a 3 or a 4 in difficulty. I'm considered a "gifted reader". I read Harry Potter in 4 hours in 3rd grade and "War and Peace" and "Anna Karenina" in 6th grade. I'm in 9th grade right now, I breezed through my AP ELA Class in 2 months getting a final grade of 98%. I'm currently reading Ulysses.

Hi Karen,
Sorry I can't come to your birthday party, I REALLY wanted to come. The only thing is I had to walk my cat... no I mean my dog. Yes my dog. Sorry I just got a dog yesterday I have to walk it. The vet said my dog had to be walked for however long your party is hours a day. Sorry about that. Toodles
sincerely, Chad
