What reading level is The Cliff Dwellers book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
They carried their babies on their backs, strapped to a baby-board similar to the ones now used among certain tribes, made of bent wood, woven across with yucca fibre.
Their axes were of stone with edges of sufficient sharpness for felling trees, bound about with flexible wood, twisted to form the handle, but almost as indispensable were the paddles and knee-boards used in beating and rolling the ever necessary yucca.
They ate with stone knives, and spoons made of bone, and cooked their food in... earthen vessels, which they made by twisting a small roll of wet clay round and round in coils, then pinching it down and shaping it into large vessels. They manufactured other pottery in the shape of drinking cups, vases, and lamps, some of them highly decorated in red and black, most of the patterns being geometrical. A few bowls bear figure designs of men and animals, but nothing which would throw any light upon the characters or pursuits of the people, being merely roughly drawn pictures.
They used needles of bone and thread of yucca fibre and cotton, darned their clothing and mended their sandals in a very civilized fashion.
