What reading level is Our Insect Friends And Foes book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
The three pairs of legs are interesting, on account of their special modification of form to meet the needs of the Beetle. The front pair are the longest, are slender, and in the male bear SOME AQUATIC INSECTS 85 a number of curious circular, cement-secreting organs, somewhat similar to those on the front legs of the male Dytiscus, and used for the same purpose. The third pair are paddle shaped, broad, and capable of delivering powerful back- ward strokes as the insect swims through the water. ...The middle pair of legs are also used as paddles, but are not so broadly expanded as the third pair. The Whirligig Beetles make a curious squeaking noise just before taking flight, the sound being produced by rubbing the under side of the wing-cases against the end of the body. The beetle does not rise directly from the surface of the water in its flight, but first climbs up a plant stem, and then spreads open its long wings. When collecting Whirligig Beetles, it is necessary to handle them with caution, as when alarmed they exude from every joint of their body a milky fluid which smells most unpleasantly like cockroaches.
