What reading level is Brazil And the Brazilians book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
A specimen I managed to secure alive in the State of Ceara, while it was young, became very docile in captivity, though it would never allow strangers to handle it. It eventually succumbed to sea-sickness in the Bay of Biscay while on its way to England. Brazil has a few small animals of the wolf and jackal kind, but they are timid creatures that any dog can chase off.
The rodent order has some very large repre- sentatives, found chiefly in the Amazon Valley. The capivara {Hydrochcerus capibara...), the largest rodent in the world perhaps, may be seen here. It is four or five feet long with a thin coat of grey hair, and feeds on grass and herbs, pre- ferring those growing in water. The flesh of the capivara is much liked by Brazihans. An- other rodent whose flesh is highly esteemed by QUEER ANIMALS AND SNAKES 187 all who have eaten it is the paca {Ccelegenys subnigra). It is about two feet long and a foot high. Pacas are very clean, gentle animals, easily domesticated. Their food is fruit and roots, and they grunt like pigs while eating.
