This book, "Ban This Book" by Alan Gratz Rated 1/5 (Child Guidance) mentions the book "It's Perfectly Normal" rated 3/5 (Minor Restricted).
Here is a quote from the book "Ban this Book":
"So, it turns out It’s Perfectly Normal is not a novel. It’s a nonfiction book all about S-E-X, as Mrs. Spencer would say. With pictures. 64 “Janna borrowed The Egypt Game from me. But I think she wants to read a different one of the banned books instead.” “Which one?” I whispered. “The sex book. It’s Perfectly Normal.” I grabbed a braid and held it close to my mouth. “But I can’t buy that one!” “That was on the list?” Rebecca said. “You don’t have to buy that one. I’ve got it.” My eyes went wide. She had a copy? “At your house?” I asked. “Yeah,” she said. She acted like it was no big thing. “My mom gave it to me. I think that way I couldn’t sue her one day for not telling me everything before I needed to know it.” “Have you read it?” I whispered. Rebecca leaned in breathlessly. “Some parts.”"
Note: The book "It's Perfectly Normal" has yet to be found in a Michigan Elementary school library. It has been found in Michigan High School libraries. The book "Ban this Book" has been found in Michigan Elementary Schools.
