Must be the season :) My district has a sound policy and practiced procedures in place. I've contacted the district office for support and will be writing the state org after I write this. I've also contacted ALA. This is the page to bookmark for challenges and ALA: http://www.ala.org/alaorg/oif/reporting.html Previously they have helped me dig up older reviews I don't have access to. Meanwhile, I am writing to simply request contact/info from any school that may also have gone through a challenge for the book mentioned, "Kaffir Boy" by Mark Mathabane. A parent is challenging it based on her belief that it is "offensive to Blacks." Thanks to anyone who may be able to respond. Joni J.
