What reading level is Modern Practical Design book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:

These nests are constructed precisely on the same principle as their ornamental prototype, though the character of their serrations as well as their ornamental canstruction is vastly more varied.
The texture of leaves also presents many variations. In some it is hard and shiny, as in the Laurel ; in others it is soft and woolly, as in Mullein.
PLANT FORM AS THE BASIS OF ORNAMENT. 35 Many leaves are also provided with hairs more or less obvious, as in the Gourd and Cucumber; with sharp prickles,
... as in the Holly, Thistle and others ; and in the case of some insect-eating plants, such as the Sun-dew ; with tentacles, that close round any living organism coming in contact with the leaf.
It will thus be seen that leaves present an almost indefinite number of variations in their contour and general character, a variation so great that it becomes difficult to obtain a grasp of their general decorative development; little more can be done than to point out their leading characteristics.
^here are also plants in which the stipules are abnormally developed, and in which the leaves are non-existent, or more correctly speaking, modified into tendrils, the stipules taking the place of the leaves; such a plant is the Lathy- rus or Wild Pea.
