At least 15 of these were assigned reading at my high school, and almost all of them are main stream and considered great reading.

I mean seriously. Who the hell believes that “Charlottes Web” or “Harry Potter” or “The Hunger Games” are books which threaten the government that they don’t want you to read? That’s a silliest thing I’ve ever heard.

Where’s Atlas Shrugged at? Or the Creature From Jekyll Island? Those still aren’t “banned” books but at least those selections make a tiny bit of sense considering their ideas actually threaten the current government.
