“I paid less than $2 each and brought two copies to the library in 1986; I was immediately deluged with requests. Our high school went through many, many copies of this little paperback. Very often, in requesting the book, a student would refer to the little girl's head being shoved into the toilet. Many years after it came out, requests were still being received for it and this was long before the well-publicized child abuse scandals of the late '90's and since. In 2010, those wishing to purchase a copy (it is out of print) can get a new one for about $43 or a used one for $19. ”
