I will say I agree with Dani on it being parents job. I always encourage
parents to be aware of what their kids are reading.
But as  a parent and a librarian that uses the library with a child giving
them a certain area to pick from and feel like they are safe is helpful. We
don't shelve all of our books together like this app seems to. Options are
helpful.
Parents of young kids may be turned off right from the start because even
the banner that runs at the top has at least one slightly scary image
without even opening a book.

 I have been working with it and have found no way to limit with filters as
a user like we can for CL. As a user I find that feature very helpful for
kids and adults. Just my thoughts!
