http://tammypierce.livejournal.com/17674.html This is a list of books that are most often petitioned to be banned.
Some of them I understand. I mean, Chaucer can be a bit raunchy at times, Twelfth Night involves cross-dressing and men thinking they might be gay, and the whole Harry Potter thing has been discussed more times than I want to count.
But James and the Giant Peach? Really?
I had to study both Twelfth Night and Of Mice and Men for GCSE's. Both are considered classics (at least by me), and people want to ban them?
Sometimes I worry about people.
