For fiction, science fiction or translations of classic short stories. For non-fiction, essays on society, globalism, futurism. I think I might actually prefer fiction somewhat. I would really like to have lengthy texts that initially use a limited vocabulary, and build in complexity. These could be great for didactic purposes. Myself, already being 30% of the way there, I wouldn't need the easiest level. But I'm sure many others could use it. Chris Capel -- "What is it like to be a bat? What is it like to bat a bee?
