What reading level is Our River book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
When the baskets are up, there is just room for a boat to pass through the square opening underneath ; all the passages of the water above are fenced off, so that the fish are forced to go through the bucks on their way down, the back-water becoming a sort of funnel, with the baskets as strainers at the end of it. There is often a small passage at the side, through which a boat can get past the bucks, but it is made so that you have to turn a short way up stream in order to go through ; the fis...h of course do not think of this back turn, as they pass along down stream.
On account of old worn-out bucks, and the fencing and staking connected with them, all backwaters, if the water is not well known, should be passed with caution, as very dangerous snags and stumps may be met with, striking on which would be quite sufficient to knock a hole in a thin boat. In punting, as you look down so much into the water they are generally perceived ; a punt's floor is besides strong enough to resist a good bump.
