*Seriously though, banned by "who"? No one has the right to ban any book. the American Library Association, will not carry some books, but usually for political correct material. "Blubber" was challanged, (or "banned" as the OP would like you to think) because it contained racial slur's A lot of modern classics are challenged ( or "banned" as the OP would like you to believe) because they have sexual connotations, violence etc.and are classified as inappropriate "for certain age groups". there's nothing on that list that a person couldn't read at any time since they were published. That is, unless you looked for it in a local public library, and even then that is questionable. BTW, I don't think that "righties" control the American Library Assn.
