E. R. Frank's America challenged in OH.

From the Record-Courier:

Angela Calo, mother of a seventh-grader at Brown Middle School is requesting "America," a novel by E.R. Frank, be withdrawn from the district, according to the written complaint submitted to the superintendent's office.

"What we kept finding and going over was sexual content and profanity," Calo said. "Yes, we decided it was not suitable for any child."

The novel, which deals mostly with the effects of childhood trauma, was part of a free reading library in the classroom of Cathy Adler, who teaches gifted and talented students at Brown Middle School. It is not, however, on any required reading lists within the city's school district.
