What reading level is Japonica book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
In any case, be sure to order some U7iagi-meshi, the very nicest thing which they cook in Japan, consisting of small silver eels, from which the bones have been removed, split, spitted upon bamboo splinters, and roasted upon boiled rice, with a delicious sauce. We decide upon the usual four courses, with sake of the first quality ; and whoever gives the order will now fold up in paper, say twenty sen, for the musmee, and, if very liberal, thirty or forty for the aruji, or mistress of the house.... " Ohisai mono ! " you mutter, pushing the folded papers to the girl, who goes down upon her nose and murmurs in reply, " Domo arigato zonji- mas," " Beally, most thankful," but does not touch them yet, as it is etiquette never to seem in a hurry to appropriate a gift. She disappears to convey the " honorable commands," and then there ensues a longish wait, during which you will smoke and chat again, and watch more fishermen arriving with their silvery cargoes; the betto washing their horses in the sea; the brown, bare Japanese boys and girls disporting in it; and the servants of the hotel taking out from the fish-boxes the struggling materi- als of your dinner.
