[aisle] HS reads with no profanity

[Kori Wentzloff]

Not a suggestion of a book, but a place to check if a book includes any
profanity:   https://kissthebook.blogspot.com/

Someone shared this site at a conference once and I love looking to see if
a book might be too mature for my middle school readers.  Of course, it
doesn't have *every* book, but it does have quite a few!  They look at
language, violence and "mature content".
