What reading level is Away in the Wilderness book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
Meanwhile Arrowhead lifted the canoe with great ease, placed iton his shoulders, and bore it to the same place. When all had beencarried up, the canoe was launched into the quiet water a few hundredyards above the fall, the baggage was replaced in it, and the travellerswere ready to continue their voyage. This whole operation is called_making_ _a_ _portage_. It took about an hour to make this portage.
Portages vary in length and in numbers. In some rivers they are few andfar between; in others ...they are so numerous that eight or twelve mayhave to be made in a day. Many of the portages are not more than aneighth of a mile in length, and are crossed for the purpose of avoidinga waterfall. Some are four or five miles in extent, for many longreaches in the rivers are so broken by falls and rapids, that thevoyagers find it their best plan to take canoes and baggage on theirbacks and cut across country for several miles; thus they avoid roughplaces altogether.
Jasper delayed starting for half an hour, in order to give Heywood timeto finish his sketch of the fall.
