What reading level is The Desert Further Studies in Natural Appearances book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
and has a ferocions bite. It makes an ugly wound and is deadly enongh to small animals.
The scorpion has the reputation of being very yenomons ; bnt his sting on the hand amounts to little more than that of an ordinary wasp.
Nor is the long-bodied^ many-legged, rather graceful centipede so great a poison-carrier as has been alleged. They are all of them poi- sonous, but in varying degrees. Doubtless the (to us) harmless homed toads and the swifts haye for their enemies some venom in store.
The ...lizards are many in variety, and their colors are often very beautiful in grays, yellows, reds, blues, and indigoes. The Oila monster belongs to their family, though he is much larger. The look of him is very forbidding and he has an ugly way of hissing at you ; but just how venomous he is I do not know. Very likely there is some poison about him, though this has been denied. It would seem that every- thing that cannot stand or run or hide must be defended somehow. Even the poor little skunk when he comes to live on the desert de- velops poisoned teeth and his bite produces what is called hydrophobia.
