Surprise!

A call on the Reference Desk:

"Hi, I'm calling to see if you have a specific book. Do you have The Boy's Body Book?"

"Hmm... It looks like we don't have that particular title, but we do have The What's Happening To My Body? Book For Boys. Would you like me to pull that title for you?"

"No, it has to be the other book. It's supposed to have a really good chapter on morning surprises."

...

Fair enough.

(I'm reminded here of S. R. Ranganathan's Five Laws of Library Science, specifically laws 2 & 3)
