Bloody Moments - Challenged book?

[Steve and Karen Puckett <skpuckett@earthlink.net>]

Dear LM Net:

Recently my Principal and Superintendent became concerned over a title,
popular in my media center, entitled "Bloody Moments" by Gael Jennings.
The media center services grades 7 and 8.  Reviews and other sources
seem to find the title to be an educational one...albeit really gross.

What are your thoughts on this title?  Is it appropriate for grades 7 &
8.

Thanks!
