Reader’s comment: Censored by the lemon suckers

July 1, 2018

Authors such as Roald Dahl and Enid Blyton plus many more have been condemned and withdrawn from school libraries on grounds ranging from racism to imperialism with every social offence in between. I’ve read the stuff that is approved and you couldn’t give it away to kids.
