You have a good start. I notice that you have a lot of books from Israel. You need to keep to JUST the list they gave you to use, I did note that Central America consists of seven countries: Belize, Costa Rica, El Salvador, Guatemala, Honduras, Nicaragua, and Panama(so these could all have spanish speaking books)
You also did not include anything that was from Urban amesrican culture(farming books, country living??) or from the category of Urban american culture(which is usually black people and something from the inner cities, which is urban)

Complete task "C" below- do this for only 2 books-you just need to complete #1 below on how you determined the grade level..was it explained in Fry's graph and how, etc.
