They want to REMOVE a book called "Yes/No" that teaches children that its OK TO SAY NO to sexual contact. In a state where they had to FIGHT for dozens of years to raise the marriage age from 14 to 16. Who is really grooming children?

No children have ever died in a mass reading. America's problems aren't related to having too many books or libraries teaching empathy, respect, and love for our fellow Americans of all kinds.

Adrienne Martin finally had enough of extremists in her deep-red community trying to get books banned and to inject religion into her child’s school. Listen to her kick-ass speech before the Granbury Texas school board. It’s going viral for a reason. @MrsAMartini

The point is not whether one can get a book that’s been prohibited in a school; it’s about whether someone’s ready access to ideas has been denied or diminished in a public institution and why.

It is not only the most blatant prohibitions on books that are of concern to those who believe in protecting the freedom to read.
