Don’t Kid Around About Sex And Violence
Bookstore | Huntsville, AL, USA
Me: “Can I help you find something?”
Customer: “I was in the airport and saw this book it was blue and said something about a ranger. It looked really good, so I was trying to find it here.”
Me: “Sounds like The Rangers Apprentice series. It’s a kids’ book.”
Customer: “No, it couldn’t be a kids’ book. It looked really interesting.”
(Several minutes ensue of trying to find anything else that it could be. I ask him to wait a moment while I check the kids’ section and get the newest Rangers apprentice book and return.)
Me: “Is this it?”
Customer: “Yes!”
Me: “That’s the book I was telling you about. It’s technically a kids’ series, but it’s still a good book–just without the sex and violence.”
Customer: “None at all? But that’s why I read them!”
