"Don't let me rain on your parade..."

As always Sixty you speak wisely and cut to the chase. You are probably right but I remember their being dentists in our neighborhood when I was growing up who gave out tooth brushes and we actually thought that was kind of cool. Besides giving out the toothbrushes, the dentists accomplished something else, which was a reminder that candy was horrible for your teeth.

I think if it was the right kind of book, something that would appeal to the right age group, that it might not get the negative reaction that you predict and it might also send out a message that books can be cool too.

Where I live kids don't really trick or treat. The streets have no sidewalks and it is very dark between houses. Thus I won't be able to test the theory.
