"The episode grossly misrepresents The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-da- y Saints," said Bruce Reese, president of KSL. "We have worked with CBS to get them to change the show to eliminate the potential nationwide spread of this misperception and the enforcement of old stereotypes.

"We felt we were fully covered on the matter, but evidently exception still was taken," Kelley said. "CBS' position is that we're 100 percent behind the show," network spokeswoman Ann n - Williams has travelled to museums in Vienna, Munich, Brussels and Berlin, as well as to the New York Metropolitan Museum, the Library of Congress and the Smithsonian Library to collect pictures of unusual musical instruments. "I began collecting pictures and slides of these instruments when I was asked to teach a doctoral class on the history of musical instruments," Williams said. "At that time there so little information availawas to the public. Williams will show slides ble that I became intrigued with and play recordings of unusual researching the subject."

All of these books are well written and provoke strong emotion and would do well as a topic for a sixth- - or seventh-grad- e reading class. But if you're choosing one to give a young person for a gift, I'd give the McKissack book. What's a couple of goblins compared to the trauma of real life?
