Start with toddler books. Or a book read in your native language already, so you can compare the two together as you read. I find that learning another language helps when watching a popular movie with subtitles in your native language. I hope that helps.

My students who are 14-15 like reading chapter books for older elem students. I'm not sure what a level 5 means... schools use all kinds of different systems to assign students to levels.

Here are some books that were popular with my students:
Caddie Woodlawn
Number the Stars
Mr. Popper's Penguins
The Little House on the Prairie books
The Westing Game

They didn't complain about any of them being babyish - in fact, they really enjoyed them and didn't want to stop reading. Some of them are about history and gave the students a good chance to learn about that while they were reading.
