I Was Looking For a Book About Lebanese, Really!

A Bentonville, Ark., man is seeking $20,000 from the city after his two teenage sons found a book on lesbian sex on a public library bookshelf.

He also wants the library director fired.

Earl Adams said his 14- and 16-year-old sons were "greatly disturbed" after finding the book, titled "The Whole Lesbian Sex Book." Adams said the book caused "many sleepless nights in our house."

Books in libraries are arranged by subject so what were they looking for when they found this book? My guess the disturbance and sleepless nights have more to do with getting found out than with what they read.

Want to know if your library has this (or another) book? WorldCat lets you see if a book or other material is available at a library near you.
