What Parents Should Know

ViolenceMild

A neighborhood bully, Bugs Meany, sometimes threatens to punch Encyclopedia but never actually does.

Sensitive Topics

The book is very mild. The "crimes" are minor thefts, scams, or disputes among children. There is no violence, death, or serious peril. The approach to justice is straightforward: the person who did wrong is found out, and the situation is rectified. The book is entirely secular and presents a very safe, idealized suburban world.
