It's not about the "book itself." It's about historical revisionism.

Becasue they are not just altering the picture on the bac of the book they are removing picture illitrations from the book itself

In the great green room, there is a telephone, and a red balloon, but no ashtray. "Goodnight Moon," the children's classic by Margaret Wise Brown, has gone smoke free

The truly obtuse are innocent; the obdurant generally operate from motive.

Next thing you know, you won't be able to buy the book just because the author was a known smoker.

Just like Little Black Sambo. Try to find that one anywhere.

It is available online.
