What reading level is Ponkapog Papers book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:

It is worth noting that his method of ac- complishing these ends is directly the reverse of that of the Caribbean insect mentioned by Laf- cadio Hearn in his enchanting "Two Years in the French West Indies " — a species of colossal cricket called the wood-kid ; in the Creole tongue, PONKAPOG PAPERS cabritt-bois . This ingenious pest works a sooth- ing, sleep-compelling chant from sundown until precisely half past four in the morning, when it suddenly stops and by its silence awakens everybody i...t has lulled into slumber with its in- sidious croon. Mr. Hearn, with strange obtuse- ness to the enormity of the thing, blandly re- marks : ' ' For thousands of early risers too poor to own a clock, the cessation of its song is the signal to get up." I devoutly trust that none of the West India islands furnishing such satanic entomological specimens will ever be annexed to the United States. Some of our extreme ad- vocates of territorial expansion might spend a profitable few weeks on one of those favored isles.
