Wildly inappropriate
There is controversy about the book that might be appropriate for this article: "'Lush' Causes Uproar by Parents," by Cortney Mumaugh, Putnam County Sentinel, 15 December 2010. Excerpt: "I read the book and it is not appropriate for fifth graders," stated Kalida Superintendent Don Horstman. "I contacted the publisher and the two major school reviewers that almost every teacher uses, which both gave glowing reviews. They apologized, but I don't know what they will do to the reviews. You rely on a professional service such as Scholastic to review your books. Everything I read gave glowing reviews and didn't go into the graphic sexual details of the book. From reading those reviews I would have bought the book." "It was amazing that any, any educational organization would recommend (Lush) to any middle-grade level child," stated Horstman. "It is recommended for grades five through nine and it is wildly inappropriate for those ages." Let me add I have an announced WP:COI about libraries vis-a-vis the American Library Association, but not book authors whom I invariably support, including Natasha Friend. --LegitimateAndEvenCompelling (talk) 18:48, 16 December 2010 (UTC)
