[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I have read it and my issue is that it’s not a good book. It feels like an after school special. Or very special episode of Full House. It’s not inappropriate. Pretty tame. It does introduce kids to the Rainbow Club, at the school, so if your school has a club like that, it’s already out there. [b]And terms like enbee, etc. That they’re going to learn anyway.[/b] Again, it does feel like it has selected a pre-baked message. Many moralistic books for middle schoolers are like that.[/quote] Fine, but they can learn it from their friends. Or they can learn it during the Family Life unit. Not necessary to read this book in ‘Advanced’ English. I feel like the English department should be able to justify why my kid is forced to read certain books. What is the justification behind this one?[/quote] Or any of them. I've had so many objections to the books my kids have read in MCPS. Just a sub-par education really.[/quote]
