We've all probably done that at least once. When I was at an Elementary
school I noticed some books on the top shelf of the cabinets in my office.
One was a porn Garfield. Not appropriate at any level in schools. My aide
said the previous media specialist bought it because the review said,
"Garfield grows up" or something like that. Just get rid of the book and
don't feel guilty about "wasting" money.

What do you do when you buy a book based on a review that sounds great but
when you actually get the book, it is completely inappropriate for your
school? (We are a high school so passing it to an upper level in not an
option. Do you personally replace that copy with something appropriate and
just take it home or what?
Just sign me--the review was the best part of the book
