What reading level is The Birds About Us book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
Of true Cranes we have three species, of which, as we have seen, two were once seen on the Atlan- tic coast as far north as New Jersey. Peter Kalm, writing from New Jersey under date of February 17, 1749, says, " Cranes were sometimes seen flying in the daytime to the north- ward. They commonly stop here early in spring for a short time, but they do not make their nests here, for they proceed on more to the north. Certain old Swedes told me that in their younger years, as the country was not ye...t much cultivated, an incredible number of cranes were here every spring, but at present (1749) they are not so numerous. Several people who have settled here eat their flesh when they can shoot them. They are said to do no harm to corn or the like. " As given by Ridgway, the present range of the Whooping-crane is as follows : " Interior of North America, north to the Saskatchewan, south to Florida and Central Mexico. " This crane is said to be of " the most imposing appearance of any [bird] of this country.
