"It is crazy. When I go to book signings, I sometimes take with me some colouring pictures, and the kids draw the elements as red because the cooker is on and it's hot. They are not stupid.

Yes, but the nanny-state Socialists are.  This is merely one more avenue by which the Left seeks to create dependency upon Government....protecting The Children from any slight danger posed by Reality and insulate them in a cocoon of lies.

However “Heather has Two Mommies” is OK as are any books that scare kids with global warming hysteria.

Evidently the libtards feel that everybody is as brain dead as they are.

Here’s another one. It gets so ludicrous sometimes, you don’t know how to react.

...or that a child might copy something in a book and their parents will sue the publisher."

Yeah, you just can't go around encouraging kids to breathe fire. Doing that might set the house ablaze. If that were to happen, the parents would most certainly sue. :=)

And the new DVDs of the first two seasons of Sesame Street come with the caveat that they are "for adult viewing only" and are "not suitable for children."

Dragons breath fire, it’s a fact of life, get over it.

Now this is the type of tale that would give me nightmares.

Stories about book-banning, commie nanny-staters, and their fellow travelers should be banned — because children might try to imitate them.

Scott Adams got ahead of the curve on this one — in the Dilbert cartoons Phil, the “Prince of Insufficient Light” merely darns people to heck.

Don’t forget that “The Best Work Book Ever” was altered to be ultra-PC too.

drop a fire-breathing dragon shown in a new book...

Okay, okay... she should just always have behind each fire-breathing dragon an illustration of a fire extinguisher. That should soothe the kooks for now.

And if not, then what they really are after is tearing down society/civilization.

So does this mean I can't look forward to a new edition of "Das Struwwelpeter" anytime soon?

The door flew open, in he ran,
The great, long, red-legged scissorman.
Oh! children, see! the tailor's come
And caught our little Suck-a-Thumb.

The “children” need to know that there is no “bad” in the world.

Other than white Anglo-Saxon males, of course.

I think I’ll start grabbing up non-PC books. Someday they’ll be worth a great deal of money...maybe. That is if they don’t confiscate them from us.
