[aisle] Teacher Request

[Christine Wilson]

Is it really our place to decide what a teacher can and cannot read aloud
in the classroom? She may have a very sound reasoning for sharing this
particular book with this particular class, but even if she doesn't, I
think we should remember the Library Bill of Rights and send her the book.

If you want to express some concern, and inquire what lesson this
corresponds to, and suggest some alternatives, I think that's fine. But
trying to regulate what a teacher reads in her classroom is, I think, over
the line.
