Parents Speak Up About Hoover Teacher's Erotic Novel

North Canton City Schools Board of Education members got an earful Wednesday from numerous parents unhappy about a Hoover High School teacher's erotic novel.

The book titled "Schooled" is described on Amazon.com as "Chelsea Handler meets '50 Shades of Gray.'" It contains adult language, adult content and explicit sex scenes and is being sold in the online store's erotic section.

Carol Ann Eastman, a seven-year Hoover High teacher, reportedly authored the book under the pen name Deena Bright.

Parents told the school board Wednesday that it's not the book itself that's bothersome, but comments attributed to the author about the novel, the Canton Repository reported Thursday.

The newspaper stated that two parents said they would not want their children in Eastman's class.

The Amazon description of "Schooled" describes the plot: "A young teacher learns about sexuality, pleasure, and satisfaction from rather unlikely and forbidden teachers, her former students, now recent college graduates."
