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

The stump of a tree will send 165 SIDELIGHTS ON CHINESE LIFE out its roots wandering for moisture underneath a choice little plot where his potatoes are growing, and the farmer feels that these are an infringement upon the rights of the plants that look to him for protection. He seizes his hoe, and with a few sturdy strokes of its keen, sharp edge driven into its very heart in a short time the stump has vanished, and the roots have ceased tapping the moisture that the potato tubers require for ...their own growth.
But it would take up too much space to describe all the thousand and one ways in which this truly national imple- ment is used by the farmers of China. It is quite enough to say that without it they would be left quite helpless, and if the agriculture of the country was to be carried on, some other implement equally serviceable would have to be devised to take its place. The plough and the harrow are of secondary importance to the hoe, but still they occupy a prominent position in the agricultural economy of the nation.
