This must all be for political cred. Every one of these books can be downloaded and read at the leisure (or during boring false history class). If I still had a kid I would be downloading every book that was banned and reading them to my kids or having them available to them at all times. I have a granddaughter who is in school in Missouri. She is in tiny pre-school but will be going to a Missouri public school soon enough. My son will take care of this, at least in their home, radical guy that he has become.
