Hi,

I need help from the collective group. I am the librarian at a PreK-8
Catholic school. Recently I have discovered two books that I added to the
middle school collection (checkout for grades 6-8) based on professional
reviews none of which described that the book had heavy sexual content. I
am at a pretty liberal school but these books are truly pushing the
envelope. Does anyone have an additional reviewing resource that they have
found that do a good job describing "mature" content in middle school books?

Thanks
Linda
