When I was in high school my 10th grade English teacher gave us a list of "books that she wanted to cover, but was not allowed because she was forbidden by the school board to teach them in class". I read every single one on the list. From "Heart of Darkness" to "Hard Times" to "Catcher in the Rye".... you have to wonder who the heck serves on these school boards to deem a book worthy to teach or not and considers books like those "unworthy".
