A children’s book written by the wife of anti-gay Standard of Liberty president Stephen Graham is being carried by over 100 Walmart stores. Chased by an Elephant, the Gospel Truth about Today’s Stampeding Sexuality by Janice Barrett Graham was written to “help shed the clear light of truth on today’s dark and tangled ideas about male and female, proper gender roles, the law of chastity, and the God-given sexual appetite,” according to Janice Graham in the book’s introduction.
With a title like that, it's considered a children's book?

Amazing! The alarmists are out. The propoganda, the fear mongering, and the hate.
This is a book by the Mormons to help families in their church overcome homosexuality. Period.
It is not a book of hate. You are free to purchase it or pass.
Do you really believe in freedom of speech and press or not?
Do you want to withhold a book being published and distributed because you disagree with the premise? Surely we have come farther than this.
You people are scary. I bet not one of you have even read the book but there you are slandering and hating. And you call people who disagree with homosexuality haters. Ha!
My personal opinion? Families have a right to teach whatever values they want in their own families. I could care less. The problem comes in when they try to impose those values on other people. THAT is the problem. I don't think this book is a big deal.

I could care less if it is pro or anti gay, I was just a bit taken aback by the title for a "children's" book.

Well, I for one, am not at all interested in reading a book the author freely admits is anti-gay. But I'd have to look very closely at any book a child of mine was interested in that had the word 'sexuality' in the title. Especially 'rampaging sexuality'. And I don't care if the book is 'anti-gay', 'pro-gay' or totally indifferent to the subject of homosexuality, my children would not be reading any book about sexuality until either they were assigned the book in school or I considered them mature enough to deal with such issues.
BTW, I just asked my son for his opinion and he says "No way in h*ll would this book be appropriate" for his 10 year old son.
