What reading level is Australia Twice Traversed, Illustrated, book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
In the scrubs to-day Gibsonfound a Lowan's or scrub pheasant's nest. These birds inhabit the mostwaterless regions and the densest scrubs, and live entirely withoutwater.
This bird is figured in Gould's work on Australian ornithology; it iscalled the Leipoa ocellata. Two specimens of these birds are preservedin the Natural History Department of the British Museum at Kensington. We obtained six fresh eggs from it. I found another, and got fivemore. We saw several native huts in the scrubs, some ...of them of largedimensions, having limbs of the largest trees they could get to buildthem with. When living here, the natives probably obtain water fromroots of the mulga. This must be the case, for we often see smallcircular pits dug at the foot of some of these trees, which, however, generally die after the operation of tapping. I called the spot GlenOsborne*; we rested here a day. We always have a great deal of sewingand repairing of the canvas pack-bags to do, and a day of rest usuallymeans a good day's work; it rests the horses, however, and that is themain thing.
