Mirele, I hope that your questions will generate a discussion on Hasafran. I don't know the book. I can only suggest to create a category for books that you keep behind your desk. You, than, can suggest it to a teacher, student or adult upon demand. It is a partial censorship, but, if nothing else, it will protect you from complains by concerned parents and supervisors. Amalia
