Is there anyplace that is really banning “To Kill a Mockingbird”? Or was that just included in the list of banned books to make us think that classics are on the chopping block and distract us from the warped perverted books that are actually being banned?

Years ago, our local Borders books was having a book drive for local schools. I bought “To Kill a Mockingbird” to donate. Most of the other classics they recommended as donations were books I found so boring as a kid that I would never subject a child to them. (I’m looking at YOU, “Great Expectations”!)

I wonder how many public schools have unedited copies of Tom Sawyer and Huck Finn on their shelves?

I liked Great Expectations. It wasn’t as good as Tale of Two Cities.
