To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
The poor creature was at first a little nervous in captivity, and when she had made her burrow was very cautious about entering it. By degrees, however, she [in] FABRE'S BOOK OF INSECTS was reassured, and in a single night she stored a supply of the food I had provided for her.

It was a spacious hall, with an irregular roof and an almost level floor. In a corner w...as a round hole leading to a slanting gallery, which ran up to the surface of the soil. The walls of this dwelling, which was hollowed out of fresh earth, had been care- fully compressed, and were strong enough to resist the earthquake caused by my experiments. It was easy to see that the insect had put forth all her skill, all her digging-powers, in the making of this permanent home, whereas her own dining-room had been a mere cave, with walls that were none too safe.
I suspect she is helped, in the building of this archi- tectural masterpiece, by her mate: at least I often see him with her in the burrows.
