mockingbirds singing

I sometimes wonder if these anonymous attempts to ban books from a school’s curriculum, are really being covertly orchestrated by English Lit teachers.

If so, it’s a brilliant move, since kids will actually read books that people don’t want them to read.

Mel and Nathan have more.

    Bad Drugs

    Do these people who want to ban books from schools ever read them first?

    I agree that age appropriate material is a consideration for many books.

    But To Kill a Mockingbird is a wonderful book–and both my husband and I admired the character Atticus Finch so much, that we named our first born son after him.

    It seems to me that Harper Lee painted a wonderful picture of a good man when she created Atticus.
