Book Banning
#11
RE: Book Banning
Oh, poor thing. She had to read some books in school that she didn't like. Boo fucking hoo. Not everyone is going to like every book. She should put on her big girl panties and deal with it.

Granted, there are people who don't like to read and people who have strong preferences for certain types of books. However, people should be exposed to a wide variety of genres and school is a good time to do that. After reading some of the comments, I do have agree that the way the book is taught can have a big influence on how a child perceives a book.
