What reading level is Wings Insects Birds Men book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:

" The brown pelican and the gannet, for instance, dive for their living and are able to do so with great wings that are wonderful organs of flight. The former dives with the wind, its long, broad, slotted wings partly flexed and set at the proper angle. It plunges beneath the surface with a great splash and on emerging takes wing again into the wind. The gannet's wings are long, slender, tapered, and its dives are accomplished in much the same way.
On account of its prowess in both sky and sea,
... the gannet is i 4 8 often referred to as a master of two elements. Its prestige van- ishes on land. Like murres and puffins it congregates on rocky ledges and for the same reason. Like them, it is unable to rise from a flat surface unless there is considerable wind, and it hurls itself headlong into space to begin its flight. Its inability to rise, however, does not result from an awkward stance and wings that are too short. On the contrary, its wings are too long. They are too long in relation to its height, for the stout legs, though placed near the center of its body, rather like the gull's, are too short to produce the upward spring needed for the wings (six feet be- tween the tips) to function.
