What reading level is The Wonder of Life book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
One term in the series may be weakened or drop out ; another may be exaggerated and prolonged ; there may Y 322 THE WONDER OF LIFE be ' blending ' and ' overlap ' of instincts, and many cases of individual disturbances are on record. A bird may build a new nest at the end of the breeding season ; or it may build a supernumerary nest ; or it may stop nestiug and drop the eggs on the ground ; or it may migrate too soon, leaving its young to perish. The most common failure is in the adjustment of ...nest-building to the time of egg-laying, and at this point ' parasitism ' arose. The lack of attunement between egg-laying and nest-building is casual in many birds, but it became more than casual in cuckoos and cow-birds. A modification of instincts ensued and a modus vivendi was arrived at. As to what started the lack of attunement, we can only say — ' a nervous variation', such as all highly strung creatures frequently exhibit.
Jenner pointed out that the bird has but a short time to stay in its breeding area, and much to do in that short time.
