This reader is of junior high or middle school age, about 11-13. He is just beginning to develop abstract reasoning abilities. Thus, these books contain more complex plots and ideas, and a few easy-to-discover problematic worldviews. This reader may also be developing a spiritual relationship with God greater than mere theological knowledge.
Much of these books will be training ground for the advanced reader. In that sense, it could be said that there are two categories of reader: concrete and abstract, and that each category has two levels of difficulty. The difficulty of the actual text does increase through all the levels, though.
