What reading level is The Wonders of Instinct book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
Besides, there is noreason why a substance of this kind, which plays so frequent a part inanimal economy, should not coat the Spider very slightly by the mereact of perspiration. We used to rub our fingers with a little oilbefore handling the twigs in which the Goldfinch was to be caught; evenso the Epeira varnishes herself with a special sweat, to operate on anypart of her web without fear of the lime-threads.
However, an unduly protracted stay on the sticky threads would have itsdrawbacks. In... the long run, continual contact with those threads mightproduce a certain adhesion and inconvenience to the Spider, who mustpreserve all her agility in order to rush upon the prey before it canrelease itself. For this reason, gummy threads are never used inbuilding the post of interminable waiting.
It is only on her resting-floor that the Epeira sits, motionless andwith her eight legs outspread, ready to mark the least quiver in thenet. It is here, again, that she takes her meals, often long-drawn out, when the joint is a substantial one; it is hither that, after trussingand nibbling it, she drags her prey at the end of a thread, to consumeit at her ease on a non-viscous mat.
