Hello to all. Although it is definitely not the way I want to end my school year, it appears as though I might have a book challenge to Deadly Little Secret, by Laura Faria Stolarz. I am in a middle school, grades 5 - 8, and the complaint is coming from an 8th grade girl's mother. I have read the book and while I do think it is edgy, I think it's appropriate from some middle schoolers. What I am having a hard time doing, though, is finding professional reviews to back me up. I've found a review for the book from KLIATT and Kirkus Reviews, but that's it. I also can't seem to find any awards or nominations the book has received. If anyone can help me find more professional reviews or awards it's received, I would be forever more grateful. TIA, Angela Angela O'Kane Librarian Pioneer Ridge Middle School okanea@usd231.com 913.856.7817 -------------------------------------------------------------------- Please note: All LM_NET postings are protected by copyright law.
