When doing the laundry of nine-year old boys, it isn't necessary to check all of the pockets. The markers are washable, and it is a well-established fact that candy and string cheese wrappers weather the washer and dryer in near perfect condition. Paperback books, on the other hand, don't do so well in the washing machine. It seems that J. had been doing quite a bit of bathroom reading and decided to hide a book about the World Series in the hamper. The soaked book is now in the garbage, with the exception of several bits of cover, which have adhered themselves to the washer tub.
Fortunately, the book came from our collection, not the library's.
