It is so sad to see that with the exception of Anne Frank and Uchida, you do not have any passages translated into English of world literature contrary to most other countries in the world. Text books, in Europe, for instance, do not hesitate to have some passages translated written by famous foreign writers. Consequently, this text book does not show students anything about the rest of the world and it isolates students from the rest of the world. That should not be the goal of education.
