What reading level is Islands And Their Mysteries book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
As we approach closer, we note that the water shoals and, with our canoe resting motionless, we gaze through the clear liquid and scan the bottom of the lake spread out beneath us. Scattered upon the sand are numerous dark-brown and black mussels, their pearl-lined shells slightly opened and the cream-pink flesh between them visible. All about lie other mussels, dead and opened, and with their pearly, lustrous in- teriors flashing back the sunlight streaming through the water. You wonder what d...e- stroyed them, but you will find the explana- tion later when you land on yonder beach. Waving gently to and fro above the mussels 89 90 ISLANDS AND THEIR MYSTERIES are delicate, fern-like water-weeds, and here and there a soft, branched fresh-water sponge. Myriads of tiny pebbles and bits of water-logged twigs strew the sand and pres- ently you note that some of these move slowly about as if endowed with life. And endowed with life they are, for these are the houses of Caddice Worms, the larvae of a delicate, lacy-winged insect which flies gayly about when fully grown, but, in its caterpillar state, leads a submarine life and preys upon any unfortunate smaller creatures.
