What reading level is Myths of China And Japan book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
Should I leave my vine, which cheereth God and man, and go to be promoted over the trees? Then said all the trees unto the bramble. Come thou, and reign over us. And the bramble said unto the trees. If in truth ye anoint me King over you, then come and put your trust in my shadow: and if not, let fire come out of the bramble, and devour the cedars of Lebanon. As in Assyria, there was in China quite a selection of life-giving trees. The Chinese gigantic Peach Tree, whose fruit was partaken of by... gods and men, grew in the Paradise among the Kwun-lun mountains in Tibet, and, like the Indian Mount Meru ("world spine"), supported the Universe. Its fruit took three thousand years to ripen. The tree was surrounded by a beautiful garden, and was under the care of the fairy-like lady Si Wang Mu, the queen of immortals, the "Mother of the Western King", and the "Royal Mother of the West". She appears to have originally been the mother - goddess — the Far-Eastern form of Hathor. In Japan she is called Seiobo.
