What reading level is Our Common Insects book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:

The body of the insect is rounded, with thetwo hind pair of feet rudimentary and bearing long hairs. It buriesitself in the skin on the more protected parts of the body, and by itspunctures maintains a constant irritation. Other species are known toinfest the sheep and dog. Another singular mite is the Demodexfolliculorum (Fig. 151), which was discovered by Dr. Simon, of Berlin, buried in the diseased follicles of the wings of the nose in man. It isa long, slender, worm-like form, with eight sh...ort legs, and in thelarva state has six legs. This singular form is one of the lowest andmost degraded of the order of Arachnids. A most singular mite wasdiscovered by Newport on the body of a larva of a wild bee, anddescribed by him under the name of Heteropus ventricosus. The body ofthe fully formed female is long and slender. After attaining this form, its small abdomen begins to enlarge until it assumes a globular form, and the mass of mites look like little beads. Mr. Newport was unable todiscover the male, and thought that this mite was parthenogenous.
