What reading level is Chapters On Animals book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:

The oxen are in this case used in a poorer, and the horses in a richer district ; but it would be unsafe to draw any general inference from that, as it happens sometimes that a comparatively wealthy country will use oxen, whilst a poorer one will be as faithful to horses as are the inhabitants of gold- accumulating Manchester or Middlesex.
These animals, though not of quick intelligence, are very easily educated

The novice requires special attention during the first day or two, but he gradually gets accustomed to his duty, and comes to understand the various signs and sounds by which the will of his master is communicated to him. As his temper is usually equable, it is not so much any active vice that has to be overcome as a certain slowness of understanding. I had almost written 'stupidity,' but that would be scarcely just The ox is not really stupid, but he has Saxon slowness, which is a different thing.
