I’m not surprised about Harry Potter. I worked at a bookstore, and came across a surprising number of parents who wouldn’t let their kids read those books because they didn’t want them to start believing in witchcraft. I always wondered what else they would censor from their kids’ lives out of fear.

So is it good or bad that I have read at least half of those? Most of those are GREAT books that get people thinking…maybe we aren’t supposed to be thinking? LOL!

Now, now. I can certainly understand wanting to ban Junie B. Jones.

Oh, the grammar, the awful, ugly butchering of the English language!

It was a happy day in the Foyt household when dear daughter decided to give away the Junie B. Jones collection.
