Lodi Public Library keeps Tango on the shelves.

On the regular picture book shelves, that is -- and it hasn't been given a "mature content" sticker, either.

The woman who made the complaint... well, this quote says it all:

"I don't have a problem with the book being at the library, but it is not appropriate material for children in that (1- to 3-year-old) age group," Bramasco said. "I'd feel the same way if the penguins were murderers or rapists. Don't sugarcoat that type of material by making it pertain to cute penguins, or dogs or kittens or whatever. It's not appropriate material for a 3-year-old to see and hear."

Yep.  Gay penguins in love, raising a baby penguin together = murderous rapist penguins.

Wow. 

Anyway, Major Kudos to the Lodi PL, both for keeping the book and for having the foresight to come up with a smart collection development policy:  "Library director Nancy Martinez said the library has a four-page collection policy, with a section stating the library relies on parents to decide what is appropriate or inappropriate for their family to read."
