[LM_NET] TAR: Challenge; Give a Boy a Gun MORE info

[Kathleen Guinnane <lv2rdbks@EXCITE.COM>]

In my first message I forgot to mention that I am in a K-8 building.  I do have a 
YA sticker on the book which means that only students in grades 6-8 can check it 
out.

It hasn't officially been challenged yet, but I had an irate parent yelling at the 
vice principal because there was a book with that title in the school. I have a 
challenge form and we have a weak challenge policy in place (the school's only a 
couple years old and hasn't had a challenge yet). Has anyone else dealt with this 
book being challenged? Based on the language the parent was using, I'm assuming 
she'll follow through with the challenge.

Thanks in advance,
