What reading level is The Lay of the Land book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:

I backed into the wind and hastened on toward the double line of elms that arched the road in front of the house. Already I could hear them creak and rattle like things of glass. It was not the sound of life. Nothing was alive ; for what could live in this long darkness and fearful cold ?
Could live } The question was hardly thought, when an answer was whirled past me into the near- est of the naked elms. A chickadee ! He caught for an instant on a dead limb over the road, scrambled along to it
...s broken tip, and whisked over into a hole that ran straight down the centre of the stub, down, for I don't know how far.
I stopped. The stub lay out upon the wind, with only an eddy of the gale sucking at the little round hole in the broken end, while far down in its hollow heart, huddling himself into a downy, dozy ball for the night, was the chickadee. I know by the very way he struck the limb and turned in that he had been there before. He knew whither, across the sweeping meadows, he was being blown.
