What reading level is Marching to France, And Other Texas Rhymes book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
In a brilliantly-lighted Spanish cafe Thru air heavy with cigarette smoke, Gleams the glitter of jewels and shoulders bare, Fringed scarfs and toreador's cloak.
The jests are many, the laugh is light, In this garden of yellow and red.
And burning black eyes and crimson lips Are tost in the glasses o'erhead.
When the gaiety 's highest and wine flows free, With the music a-crash and a-swirl In the midst of the tables of revelry Walks Lolita, the dancing girl.
With many a cheer she is welcoraed in... As with swaggering, easy grace She, with a half-smoked cigarette In her fingers, takes her place.
A little black hat, a-bob with balls Is set on her blue-black head.
Her mantilla's draped o'er a yellow skirt And she carries a cape of red.
19 Down on the floor she flings her hat And swirling her crimson cape She advances, retreats, with agile step, Like the matador's daring escape.
A blue-eyed youth in a broadcloth suit With a twirky foreign mustache — A black-eyed man with an olive skin And a picador hat and sash.
