What reading level is In the Land of Pagodas book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:

Their motto is. Slow and steady. We start, or are supposed to, but it is difficult to detect the movement. The operation is some- thing like this: The ^fs ^^' bullocks stand firm- ly on all fours, and at the com- mand to go they lean frontwards against the yoke, ging- erly ; and as the load slowly follows, a forefoot is extended, to save them from falling forward.
They keep on leaning, and the other forefoot takes its turn. A succession of such movements, slightly accelerated, makes progress. A
...nd this is their speed limit, if left to themselves. But im- patient passengers and a liberal fee provide an original source of greater haste.
The only springs present are those between our vertebrae, and they were not made to meet this. Jolt, jiggle, tip, bump, roll; rub, rattle.
On the Road in a Bullock Cart 104 ^'^ ^^^^ Land of Pagodas dust, heat, smells — on we go, and are worn nerve-bare in a mile.
Possibly going faster and getting the thing over would be preferable. So we suggest it.
The "chief officer" protests; sore-footed bullocks, hot sun, etc., are his excuses.
