Why can't Johnny read. Because he doesn't like Old Yeller. So he doesn't read! The Harry Potter series has gotten more kids to read than any other books currently available. It's captivating it's interesting isn't that the point!

I remember the Hardy Boys and Nancy Drew series which we all read way back when. This GA women wants all the HP books out of the school library's. She says that the books promote witchcraft.

IMHO I think this women needs therapy. OK let's ban Moby Dick since the guy was on a quest to kill a white whale. Cruelty to animals! It's a fucking story. Fiction, we still get to write that don't we?

I'm currently in GA so I've been following this story. The school board tabled it but who know it seems the minority (screams the loudest) prevails.

Maybe I need to move back to Russia where freedom rings! Just kidding but it's getting worse!

Cheers
