What reading level is By the Light of My Father's Smile book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:

While we were waiting for Magdalena, Manuelito, who never referred to her as June, began to teach me the Mundo initiation song. As I practiced singing, I could see he was sometimes amused by my efforts.
What is wrong? I asked. Am I not doing it right?
There is no right or wrong way to sing, Señor. To be really human is to fully understand this. However, the way that you sneak up on the words and attempt to capture them reminds me of the way ladinos sing. They like to perfect things, even singing
...! Once perfected, of course, singing loses its thrill.
What does it mean to say: From far across the water your destinycomes swimming to your souland in the branches of the nearest treelives the first cousin of your hair.
Ah, said Manuelito, this is a question I also asked the elders. It is a verse that I loved but at the same time it was difficult for me to grasp.
It is about the way you are always moving toward your fate, in life. Like a fish that leaves home a free being and ends up that same day fastened on the end of a line.
