McCall of Anniston, and two grandchildren. DEAR ABBY: As a teacher of 11th grade -L. respond to the irate parent who objected to the "trashy" books his child was required to read in school? JThat letter could have been directed at me personally because I have recommended such widely accepted literary classics as "The Grapes of Wrath," "Brave New and the ever-controversial "Catcher In The Rye." First of all, I respect the wishes of any parent who does not want his child to read certain books, and if the parent has the courage to let me know directly (and not through an anonymous phone call to my principal), I will gladly suggest some alternatives. Second, like you, Abby, am also "turned off" by certain vulgar four-letter words, mainly because of my own straight-laced upbringing. However, I suggest that no one can judge a book by selecting isolated passages from it.

For instance, both "Grapes of Wrath" and "Catcher In The Rye" deal with the importance of feeling a sense of concern and responsibility for one's fellowman. I realize that this letter is probably much too long for your column, but I feel so strongly about the value of presenting modern, readable and relevant books to our teenagers that I wish to air my views. As a teenager I never was nearly as excited about books as I am today, and I attribute my lack of enthusiasm to the dull, "safe," uncontroversial books which were the typical fare for high school English classes back in the '50s. I want more than anything else to create in my students a genuine desire to read, and that can be accomplished only by exposing them to thought-provoking books that speak directly to them in modern language which, unfortunately, often includes a few words which happen to be offensive to me. A TEACHER (I HOPE) TEACHER: Well put.
