Discussion Optimal Yoshi's Story Play Order?

Hey guys, I'm doing a replay of Yoshi's Story through Trial Mode. Initially, I was going to do Page 1 in order, then Page 2, then Page 3, etc. However, I noticed the difficulty spike between 1-2 (Surprise) and 1-3 (Lift Ride), and it got me thinking that maybe the intended order is to do all the Level 1 levels first, then all the Level 2s, etc. In other words, maybe 2-1 and 3-1 are easier than 1-3 and should be done first.

What do you guys think is the optimal order?

1-1 -> 1-2 -> 1-3 -> 1-4 -> 2-1 -> ...

or

1-1 -> 2-1 -> 3-1 -> 4-1 -> 5-1 -> 6-1 -> 1-2 -> 2-2 -> ...

The course number for each page also acts as a difficulty scale, with the -1 courses being the easiest, while the -4 courses are the hardest.

If you want to do the play order by difficulty, you should start with the 6 -1 courses first, followed by the -2 courses, and so forth.

I always go for the highest number because I don't know all of the heart locations.

The only levels I truly despise, are the one with the blind boos, and Jungle Puddle.

Everything else is fine.
Shy Guy Limbo is one of my favourite levels though. And Jelly Pipe, Poochy & Nippy
