One week after the Sioux Center Library board voted 8-1 to continue offering a sexually explicit book called “Icebreaker” to any patron with a library card, it has been discovered that the library also stocks a book called “Identical” in the 12-year-old section of the library.Bookshelves
The book graphically details multiple incidents in which a 9-year-old girl is sexually abused by her father, including one incident while her identical twin sister watches. In addition, the book contains violence, including self-harm and suicidal ideations, profanity and derogatory terms and drug and alcohol abuse.
The abuse of the daughter, Kaeleigh, started when she was nine years old.
The content is labeled as “explicit and disturbing” with many considering it inappropriate for children or sensitive readers.
According to the American Library Association, the Young Adult section of a library is for children 12-18 years old. “Identical” is shelved in the Young Adult section and has a “young adult” sticker on its spine.

This is more common in your local community than you think. This board consists of church leaders in the community.
Public librarians and educators just doing the hard work of training children to participate in society.......a degraded and perverted society, that is.
Oh?
Joe Biden biography?
They ain’t making NW Iowa library boards like they used to. Too many Dordt College staff “significant others” running it?
Ashley Biden’s diary?
My ex went to Dordt college for one year; 1971-72. 5-6 Christian Reformed churches in a very small city/town.
Things have changed.
