If a teacher is choosing to have their class read a book that many people are unhappy with, they should not be dismissed. They should not be dismissed because it is just a book and I am pretty sure most people do not take what they hear in a book and apply it unless it is a non-fiction book. Also, it's just a book.


I don't take most things that are in a book that seriously unless they are in a non-fiction book. Even then many non-fiction books that are not completely factual are based off of opinion. I can understand the cursing part and the sexual content part of censoring books , but if you are reading a book promoting a type of government should be okay. It's a form of government and if you do your research, socialism did not go well for France. Anyone with half a brain could figure out that democracy is a much better way to go.

Like i said before, it is just a book. It's not that life shattering if they hear a few curse words because they are going to here them eventually. Given, i do not think a five year old should be hearing a bunch of curse words. The sexual content, in my opinion should be held off for a while, but once you get in high school I think you will not be traumatized and your life will go on. It's a book, get over it.
