What reading level is Under the Roof of the Jungle; a book of Animal Life in the Guiana Wilds book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
About the size of a large pigeon, it has long slender legs, and remarkably long feet. These feet are a special adaptation of nature for its mode of existence, which is for the most part spent in walking about over the water plants.
The toes are extremely thin and attenuated, and are tipped with claws which are straight and pointed, and drawn out to such a length that they look greatly out of proportion, and, when the bird is in flight, trail out behind to an amazing distance.
192 mnder tbe IRoo...t ot tbe jungle Their wings, the flight feathers of which are seen to be cream-color when the bird rises in flight, are each armed at the bend with a strong, sharp spur, Hke that on the leg of a cock, and are capable of being used with much effect. The gallinules, similar in proportion though more heavily built throughout, seem to be developed for the same life as the jacanas, though not to such an extreme, as their feet and claws, though very long and slender, do not approach those of the other bird, and they are without the wing spurs.
