[ha-Safran] INTENTIONS by Deborah Heiligman
I would be interested to see some discussion on this list about this new book, winner of the Sydney Taylor Award for Teen Readers. I read the novel and found it accessible, interesting and worthwhile, but the pivotal opening event is troubling, and how many teenagers will be able to push beyond the specifics of that scene and gain a meaningful overview? I've been asked to keep it in our library collection, but not to recommend it outright to our teens. Frankly, I fully understand the concern. How do others feel? Hasafran is an insightful community! Help me come to peaceful terms with this book!

Re: [ha-Safran] BUCHENWALD
An extremely fragile paperback edition of BUCHENWALD by Leon Leloir has unexpectedly landed in my hands, and I don't know what to do with it. It's completely in French, and I believe it dates to May 1945. Any suggestions? Is this a rare book? I'd be very glad to send it to an appropriate home.

[ha-Safran] Cataloging advice
The answer may be very obvious to some of you, and I look forward to your input! I'm stymied by how to catalog two books: JEWS AND WORDS by Oz & Oz-Salzberger, and BE A MENSCH by Moshe Kaplan. JEWS AND WORDS would rightfully go under Intellectual Life, but Weine has no such category. Suggestions?? As to BE A MENSCH. Jewish Identity? Again, I'm at a bit of a loss.
