Dear Friends, We have a challenge in process on Yolanda's Genius by Carol Fenner. I am not involved, but was asked to find anything I could to support the book. I found information on the author in SATA and four review sources for the book, rating it between an "A" and a "B". I know the author lives in Michigan and I read her book, Randall's Wall, following a recommendation from our listserv. I have 'skimmed' Yolanda's Genius enough to know the storyline. The objection is mostly for language and the strong-willed defiance shown by Yolanda. I would appreciate hearing from some of you. It sounds like a weak case, but it made it past the school librarian and principal, to our district administration...following the procedure we have set up for challenges. thank you, Barbara McElfish Librarian, Mirror Lake Elementary Federal Way, Washington 98003 3mcelfish@integrityol.com "If only one person out of a hundred and fifty million should continue on as a reader, he would be the one worth saving." -- E.B.
