What reading level is Sea-Shore Life; the Invertebrates of the New York Coast book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
The mouth is at the ex- tremity of a proboscis, and is armed with a ribl)on-like tongue covered with rasping teeth. In eating, the end of the proboscis is applied to the victim's body, and the flesh rasped oft' by vigorous sweeps of the ribbon-tongue.
The egg cocoons of our whelks are often seen cast up upon the beaches, and resemble a row of yellowish colored checkers fastened upon a cord. Each checker is in reality a tough, disk-shaped capsule containing aljout two dozen eggs or young whelks.... According to Goues, when forming the capsules the female lies buried a few inches beneath the sand and remains stationary during the process. The string of capsules is slowly thrust upward, and when completed lies exposed upon the surface. The string begins as a simple thread, without capsules, and the first few cap- sules are small and imperfect but soon increase in size, being most perfect at the middle of the string. There is a thin sp)ot at the mid- dle of the outer edge of each capsule and through this the young break their way.
