For those of you with kids!
I haven' t been duck hunting in several years, but I thought I would post this on this forum. My son just got a book from a school book order called " The Magic Finger" by Roald Dahl. It is blatantly anti- hunting. The humans become ducks, and the ducks have the guns. The humans are told how the ducks have had all their children shot, etc. etc. The humans must promise not to shoot anything else, ducks, deer, etc. before ducks will stop threatening them with the guns. If you see this book anywhere, definitely do not buy it for your children. I will be contacting the book order company to protest this book, for what that will do.

The name says it all. I' d give the author the magic finger.
Thats too bad, i remember I used to read books by Dahl when I was younger. I always liked him as a writer.

Joe, I just went to their website and found that we can email them using customer service as a parent. www.Scholastic.com They say they would welcome our comments, so let' s keep them civil and on target.
