[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]FYI Common Sense Media rates this book as age 9+ [url]https://www.commonsensemedia.org/book-reviews/rick[/url][/quote] Aren't they an out-there liberal organization?[/quote] "Positive messages affirm characters' various and diverse identities, emphasize the importance of doing the right thing, and encourage kids to find friends and supporters who they can be authentic with. While primary characters are White and cisgender, secondary characters represent various skin colors and ethnicities, genders, and sexualities. Male-idenitified characters express emotions and cry. Violence is mild, including name-calling and vandalizing posters. "Jerk" and "freak" are the harshest language used. Brief comments on girl's bodies, references to "liking" girls or boys, and hand-holding make for a tame, though certainly not boring, read."[/quote]
