为什么在此 LINQ 语句中忽略了我的 Where 子句？

Question

提供的 Linq 语句旨在仅带回有孩子读过《哈克……》一书的父母的数据。但由于某种原因，我的查询似乎忽略了Where 子句，因为我每次都返回整个数据集Parents。这个查询在哪里失败？为什么Where 似乎不影响结果？

List<Parent> we = Parents.Select(par => new Parent
{
    ParentID = par.ParentID,
    Children = parents.SelectMany(parData => parData.Children).ToList().Where(child => new Child
    {
        ChildID = child.ChildID,
        Books = child.Books
    }.Books.Contains("Huck........")).ToList()
}).ToList();

类

public class Parent
{
    public Parent() { }

    public int ParentID { get { return _parentID; } set { _parentID = value; } }
    public List<Child> Children { get { return _child; } set { _child = value; } }
}
public class Child
{
    private int _childID;
    private List<string> _targets;

    public Child() { }

    public int ChildID { get { return _childID; } set { _childID = value; } }
    public List<string> Books { get { return _books; } set { _books = value; } }
}

表格

Answer 1

所以...

.Where(child => new Child
{
    ChildID = child.ChildID,
    Books = child.Books
}.Books.Contains(Convert.ToInt32("Huck........"))

可以缩短为

.Where(child => child.Books.Contains(Convert.ToInt32("Huck........"))

但是调用Convert.ToInt32("Huck........") 不会给你一个标题为"Huck........" 的书的ID。它将字符串转换为数字，结果有些无用。
