None of the reactions I read noted that the book was a translation from an Italian series. To have such a blatant omission in a European work doesn't surprise, does it? It seems to me highly probable that the original graphics were in that edition and, whether carelessly or deliberately, just reprinted in the English edition. What do you think? I agree with Toby that leaving all the existing copies out there is like letting all the feathers in that old lashan hara story blow in the prevailing winds. What a dilemma and an embarrassment for this generally careful and well respected house Rita Frischer In a message dated 11/13/2013 2:01:51 P.M.

Scholastic should be mortified and do more than stop shipping it. They should do a broader al chet and recall as many copies as they can! Toby Harris, Librarian Temple De Hirsch Sinai 1511 E.

Thank you Lisa and Robbin for sharing this article with us.Scholastics is amending the error and stopped the sale of the book, but I’, more concerned about the Recent study mentioned at the end of the article.
