Sources & How It Works

Scan a barcode or search a book title to find a brief content snapshot covering violence, language, drugs and alcohol, sexual content, and spiritual content.

Where the information comes from

Our guides summarize the reviews linked with each book, from sources such as Plugged In, Good Book Mom, Common Sense Media, and other book reviewers. Book details and covers come from Google Books and Open Library.

A snapshot to help you decide

“None listed” means the linked reviews didn’t identify a concern in that category. Guides may miss details, so use the linked reviews for more context and decide what fits your family.
