What reading level is A Naturalist in Madagascar a Record of Observation Experiences And Impression book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
Many kinds of bush are seen to be almost covered by geometrical webs : one species seems to choose the extremities of the branches of the songosongo Euphorbia, but the most common is a web averaging five or six inches in diameter which is spread horizontally on tufts of grass, and may be seen by thousands, half-a-dozen or so in a square yard. This web has a funnel-shaped hole near the centre, with a little shaft leading down to the ground. Near this, the maker and tenant of the structure a litt...le greyish-brown spider about half-an-inch long may often be found, if carefully searched for. As the sun gains power, these numerous webs become almost invisible, but before the moisture is all dried from them, they present a beautiful appearance in the sunshine, for they are exactly like the most delicate gauze, studded with numberless small diamonds, flashing with all the prismatic colours as we pass by and catch the light at varying angles.
The most conspicuous of the many species of spider seen in Madagascar is a large Nephila, a creature about an inch and a half long, with a spread of legs six or seven inches in diameter.
