It's usually pretty plain what areas they like or are interested in - and I'd far rather trust us than an "expert" or a ratings scheme.
Unless things have to conform to a faith schematic or something.... In which case leave me out.

What an assumption laden, judgmental post you've made there...
I'm not asking anyone to think for me or make my decisions. I am looking for suggestions. As a full time volunteer at the school's media center and a conscientious parent, if there is a way to get a general idea of the age appropriateness of a book before hand, I'm going to use it.
My concern is not morality based (not that it would matter if it were). My husband and I are quite capable of teaching our children right from wrong, and appropriate from inappropriate, thank you.
What I've asked for is a guide for those times that I'm not 100% sure about a specific book.
