I'm not sure what your point is (or if you read my comment correctly). I definitely think that letting librarians make the decision is better than a law that bans all books with depictions of sex from all grades. I have read this specific book and I would have been on the side of allowing it in high-schools, but not junior highs. However, I can see how a reasonable person would disagree with me, and the most prurient parts of chapter 9 are no more titillating than my junior high sex-education class, which I recall as being less titillating than looking at pictures of topless women in National Geographic, and that was definitely available in the library.
