The Media Committee met today to discuss our book challenge. First, we re-read the challenged book, Mine's the Best by Crosby Bonsall, and the challenge form. We all wrote down our response to the challenge on notebook paper. Next, we discussed our thoughts as a group. We unanimously agreed that the book should remain on the shelf for general circulation. We felt that the book should be used to teach conflict resolution and that does not foster hate as was the parent's concern. Mr. Frame will type up our findings and turn in the document to our Principal. I am very thankful for the opportunity to see this process in action. I am certainly less fearful of book challenges now.
