What reading level is A Quaint Corner in Old Mexico book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
Here all the space between the walks is filled with flowers, oleander trees and crepe myrtle, and many of our own home flowers grow in the friendliest way along with strange plants and flowers whose names we could never learn to pronounce. Of course the band-stand is here, and whether the same custom prevails in other places in Mexico I do not know, but in Cuernavaca, on all national holidays, the little band goes to the plaza early in the morn- ing, marching through the streets at the very fir...st peep of day, playing the national airs and arous- ing patriotism and joy in the dullest soul. The church bells ring violently, the band continues to play, and the fiesta day is ushered in, to go its accustomed way.
The old market place is across from the plaza, and from the roof of our hotel we could look down into the very center of this quaint, queer place. In the middle of it is a large fountain, around which much of the life clusters, and all about are queer booths and corners. Except in the more pretentious booths, the wares are spread out on the cobble-stones, under a shade made of straw mats, deftly fastened to a tripod, so as to revolve and catch the suns rays at any angle.
