What reading level is The Water World; a Popular Treatise On the Broad, Broad Ocean.. book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
How beautifully is the wisdom of God manifested in shaping out and moulding them, and especially in the par- ticular angle which the spiral of each species of shell effects, a valve connected by necessary relation with the material of each, and with its stability, and the condi- ditions of its buoyancy.
296 WONDERFUL 8TRU0TUME OF SHELLS.
This is shown in many ways; for in the structure of Shells there is a general adaptation of the wants of the animal to which they belong. Thus, there are light... shells for the floaters and swimmers, strength for the limpets and periwinkles, and other adjustments as needed for others.
What can be more wonderful than the apparatus essential to what are commonly called bivalves, or molluscous ani- mals protected by two shells? The hinge which connects them shows a singular contrivance for the necessities of the animal. It is formed entirely of the inner layer of shell, and consists of either a simple cardinal (a hinge) process, or of serrated projections, or teeth as they are called, with cor- responding cavities or sockets into which they are inserted.
