What reading level is Stories of Animal Life book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
This is true of the Malacosteus niger. On one side it has a golden light; on the other the light is green.
The ordinary domestic fowl affords the most positive evidence of the possession of a language that is understood. There are many decidedly different calls, which, if taken down in a phono- graph and repeated in a henhouse or yard, would produce interesting results. I need but mention a few calls to illustrate the range of the sounds in the domestic fowl. On a warm day, when hens are releas...ed from their coop, when their minds are un- disturbed and all nature looks bright and inviting, they sing as they feed a continuous repetition of 11 kerr-kerr-kerr, " with various modulations. The rooster never utters it, nor the mother hen. It is the song of the happy-go-lucky hen.
Now let a hawk appear in the sky. An entirely different sound is heard. The hen stops, stretches her head upward, and, with the cock, utters a decided note of warning in a high falsetto "K-a-r-r-r-r-e!" And if the enemy still comes on, it is repeated, and every bird in the vicinity lowers its head and runs to cover.
