Things like this make me want to go right out and get the book

I thought the book was adorable. I read it in 2006, in Cambridge...by local standards, it did not have a perceptible gay agenda.

>A spokesman for the Loudoun schools said Hatrick thought the book's content might not be developmentally appropriate for some students

Well, duh. Most books are not developmentally appropriate for any given student, at any given time. It can still be a good book. I thought this one was developmentally appropriate for a 6-year-old. (I think all the sociological implications beyond "Penguins!" went straight over her head. But that's 6 for you.) You might want to get it, and read it to Froggy later.

I have read it and bought it for my nephew. He loved it and ended up taking it to school for story time. (My sister is cool with it too.)
