    Definitely take a look at the books offered before deciding if this is right for your teen. Several of them address LGBTQ issues and there is at least one on critical race theory.

      Thank you. I was just wondering about that.

    • Lora

      When my daughter was in middle school, some of the Manga books in the library had nude cartoons in them. Some books contain racial slurs, sexual violence, cuss words, and content I feel is inappropriate for young teens. Keep onlinemunication open with your teens.

        Whoa that is crazy. Thanks for the head’s up and won’t be using this.
