blood on books

[Sylvia Adair <adair@EXECPC.COM>]

Hi, all.  No, this message is not about horror fiction <grin>.  One of
our kids had a nosebleed on a teacher's personal copy of a Harry
Potter book.  There were two spots of blood, each about the size of a
quarter.  When she wiped it up, she smeared it.  Some of the blood is
in the margin and some is on the words.
What would you use to clean this up?  She put a little hydrogen
peroxide on it, and that seemed to help.  I suggested putting wax
paper between the pages while it dries.
Luckily, I've never encountered this before.  If this were a library
book, would you keep it?
Any help you can give us will be greatly appreciated.  I'll compile a
hit if anyone else is interested.
Thanks in advance, as always.  This list has access to the best
information in the world.
