What reading level is Jock of the Bushveld book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
That was enough for me. It had never occurred to me that there was going to be any fun in this for the crocodile ; but one's sense of humour and justice was always being stimulated in the Bushveld.
366 With twenty yards of open ground between us I turned and waited ; but no crocodile appeared, nor was there a sound to be heard in the reeds. A few minutes wait ; a cautious return ; a careful scrutiny ; and then resort to sticks and stones ; but all to no purpose : there was neither sign nor soun...d of the crocodile ; and not being disposed to go into the reeds to look for something which I did not want, but might want me, I returned to Mungo a little wiser, it is true, but not unduly ' heady ' on that account.
Half an hour's jogging along the bank having failed to propose anything, I struck away from the river taking a line through the bush towards camp, and eventually came across a small herd of blue wildebeeste. Mungo's pricked ears and raised head warned me ; but the grass being high it was not easy to see enough of them from the ground to place an effective shot, and before a chance offered they moved off slowly.
