What reading level is The Land of the Lion book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:

Then a lighter patch of jungle would cheer you and you could rest for a few moments on an tint hill, wipe off your drenched head and hat, clean your eye glasses and begin to crawl again. I am leaving syce all this time some hundreds of yards outside such cover, feeding his mule in the open. The lion spoor turned in and out and led us suddenly on to the fresh track of a herd of buffalo. We had not got much farther, when close to us there sounded a dozen short sharp whistling snorts and then a co...mmotion quite nerve-shaking as the herd of great beasts crashed away. I should have said that in this dense steam- ing tangle there was no wind; little puffs of light air came now and then, not enough to cool you but evidently quite enough to give you away. This experience was repeated twice in the next hour. We drew within a few yards of the buffalo, when the same stampede would occur. Once I almost kicked a calf that rose from the dense tangle right under my feet and then we paused and let her go her way; for a calf means a cow, and a cow with calf will charge quickly and charge home, and no charge of any beast that runs is more determined or deadly.
