What reading level is Japanese Topsyturvydom book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
. Gte^ r^f^-- *'!. - "\ < ^f. - J^ Mark Twain's amusing; story of the widow who wrote in great anxiety of mind to the American statesman Horace Greeley, asking his advice upon the mental condition of her only son, whose intellect was gradually giving way under the pressure of a futile attempt on his part to make tnrnips grow like vines, was not such a far-fetched yarn after all, for had the unhappy youth been able to make the experiment in Japan, he would doubtless have accomplished the object of his ambition and preserved his mental balance at the same time. There must be some strong similarity of construction in the stalLj of Japanese cucumbers and the necks of Japanese babies, whose heads are allowed to hang, or rather dangle from their nurses' backs without the slightest support, at an angle which would infallibly break the neck of any infant of European origin, or at least we should be so certain that such would be the result that we should never risk making the experiment. Yet the cucumber never falls or breaks the vine, and not only do the infanta survive their break-neck ordeal, but few countries in the world can show a race of youug men whose heads are more erectly poised upon their necks than those of the middle and lower orders of Japan.
