What reading level is The Young Folks' Cyclopædia of Common Things book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
If two pieces of dry wood be rubbed together long enough, heat enough will be waked up in them to set them in a blaze, as is told about in the article FiRE.
When carriage wheels are dry and fit too tightly, they sometimes catch fire. This is because the wheel rubs hard on the axle and wakes up its heat.
Heat tries to spread itself in every direction in three ways. First, by touching, as when a hot thing is put on a cold thing ; the heat passes from one into the other, and the two thus get an eq...ual amount of heat. Secondly, by conduction, as when heat travels from one end of a thing to the other end. For in- stance, if one end of an iron bar be put into a fire the heat will spread all through it. Heat thus spread is said to be conducted. A piece of wood burning at one end becomes only slightly heated at the other end.
ilence some things are said to be good conductors of heat, and others bad conductors. The metals are the best conductors of heat ; glass is a poor conductor, and wood a still poorer one.
