I would certainly recommend 桜 to other first-semester Japanese students.   The story is not  difficult to read, but it is still challenging enough because of its unfamiliar kanji and vocabulary.  Context and illustrations help determine the meaning and gist of these, though, so a student should not have much of a problem understanding the story.  It is also a rather interesting, worthwhile read; it was fun to learn more about sakura, how its seasons vary along the Japanese archipelago, and how people celebrate it.
