whofors:
(Kids+) = okay for any age.
(Tweens+) = a book okay for Tweens and the young at heart.
(Some Tweens) = might have some more violence or scary elements, cursing than some Tweens prefer.
(MG+) = MG is short for middle-grader, a term that's beginning to be used more and more by librarians and publishers. MG books are typically targeting younger-Young Adults -- ages 13 to 15/16. Books for this group might have more violence, some mild cursing, and more tension/excitement in the story than some Tweens prefer.
(Some MG) = indicates a book that we believe might not be right for all Middle-graders.
(YA+) = These books are likely to have one of the following that will make it not appropriate for all Young Adults:
- Sex
- Cursing
- Extreme dark tone or very scary
- A lot of violence
- other 'adult behaviors' such as prostitution, drug use...
