What reading level is A Country Reader book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
Our bodies are kept warm because our clothes prevent the warmth that is made inside our bodies escaping into the air. Wool is fine and open, and therefore holds a great deal of air amidst its fibres, It is this air practically that prevents the heat of the body escaping, and so keeps the animal warm. Wool, therefore, is said to be a poor conductor of heat. You all know that the wool of a sheep's back is made by the manufacturer into the woollen clothes that we wear. There is something in the na...ture of the wool itself that helps the manufacturers to do this. Let us see what it is. If you examine a fibre of wool under a magnifying glass you will see that it is made up of sections or parts, and you will also find on these fibres little joints or scales. So that when several of these fibres are pressed together these little joints or scales catch one another and so hold the fibres together the wool, as we say, "felts" well. Here you have the principle of making woollen clothes. Another interesting fact.
