Bamboo comes from a bamboo shoot,
Rutabaga comes from a rutabaga root,
Bananas are the funniest fruit,
Turtle always tells the truth, and
Toad looks funny in a bathing suit!
Guess what!

As you probably know, I’m pretty outspoken on the topic of censorship. I believe it’s my job and no one else’s to decide what my kids should or shouldn’t be allowed to read.
Self-torture
I’m not sure what masochistic impulse led me to check out a copy of Banned in the USA: A Reference Guide to Book Censorship in Schools and Public Libraries.
Inkheart
