Miami Bookstore Owners React to Florida's Whopping Number of Banned Books | Miami New Times |
There are no, zero, zippo books banned statewide in the state of Florida. There are books that are pulled from schools, or restricted to High School. I am a bit surprised that anyone would feel this is wrong. July 1, a law went in effect that allows parents to petition their school board to review books they find inappropriate for children of a certain age. That is called being a concerned, involved parent. Many on this site have criticized parents for not being involved in their child's education. Can not have it both ways.
