2. Done. Typical censor! Not only will I not allow my kid to read,
but I'm not allowing YOUR kids to read it. Ever heard of DRAWING YOUR OWN CONCLUSIONS?

6. Innacurate??
Well, I am a former librarian and never believe in banning books but if it has incorrect information in it, it should be reviewed for accuracy.
