"They had Tom and Huck whitewashing the fence … and on the island interacting with the kids, but the kids were clueless," Lutz said. "I guess in the schools now they don't teach the books anymore."

gleaned the above tidbit from an article in the los angeles times with regard to rumour of a conversion of tom sawyer island at disneyland to a pirate themed island.

a classic of american literature which has been banned due to ignorance of public school boards throughout this country. as a result, part of a generation is now lacking knowledge of this piece of americana. now another piece of it shall potentially fade from the american public's awareness.

books, censorship
