What reading level is The House I Live in Or the Human Body for the Use of Families And Schools book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:

The bone which is repre- sented at b, is the scapula, or shoulder-blade. The hollow place at e, is the socket in which the round end or ball o, of the upper bone of the arm, (the humerus, ) plays freely, when the arm is moved. The socket is so shallow, and the ligaments so long, in order to enable us to make almost every kind of motion with our arms, that it is much more easily slipped out of joint or dislocated, than the hinge joints are. Even the hip, which is also a ball and socket joint, ha...s a much deeper socket ; and it is partly on this account, and partly by a different arrangement of the muscles, that we cannot swing our legs round with quite as much freedom as we can our arms.
THE HINGES. 89 But though the shoulder joint is pretty easily dislocated, it is not so easy to put it in its place again, when it once gets out, as you may imagine. It sometimes requires all the skill of a wise surgeon, and all the strength of one or two strong men.
The number of hinge joints and other joints in the frame of the house I live in is very great.
