What reading level is The Misty Isle of Skye Its Scenery Its People Its Story book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
And who would not fancy himself in dream- land as he saw the endless purple mist of the wild hyacinth which carpets every woodland glade, or mingles with the primroses on the slopes ?
During this month the life of the seabirds is worth watching as you drift among the islands in your 1 68 The Misty Isle of Skye boat, or, landing, arouse their clamorous cries and indignant shrieks. The terns have not come yet, but eider-ducks, divers, the black -backed, the herring, and the common gull, merganser...s, and oyster-catchers have already laid their eggs among the rocks and sea-pinks, and you can hardly walk over the little rocky islands where they build without stepping on their eggs. The scarts prefer to build on high cliffs, where they sit solemnly, their plumage glistening in the sunlight, or for a change bob up and down in companies on the water below. Little care is taken by most of these birds to build a nest : a few wisps of grass, some crumbling, withered twigs — that is all ; and on that, or in a hollow of the rock, the eggs are placed, and fall an easy spoil to the collector.
