As an educator and parent, I would have no problem with books like this *if* they are for children, that is on the child's reading level. But if you are thinking of buying books like this, or if you have some and have had (or anticipate) complaints, it may be helpful to relate the book(s) to something specific in your school's curriculum. For example, if a teacher assigns research on the lives of famous artists, and the book contains the needed information, you can more easily defend the book. It also helps to have challenge forms for parents to fill out, and an evaluation form used when selecting the book.
