Challenged in BC: Perks of Being a Wallflower.
From the CBC:
The Kamloops School District has decided not to ban a novel some parents have called vulgar and pornographic, but one concerned father says the fight isn't over.
Two months ago when the novel The Perks of Being a Wallflower was assigned to his son's grade 10 class, Dean Audet objected that the book was pornographic.
A committee made up of teachers, a parent and librarians recently reviewed the novel and gave it a passing grade.
But Audet says he isn't backing down and is now considering legal action.
I read Perks pretty recently, and wow. If Audet describes it as pornographic, he must find network television completely appalling.
Anyway, the weirdest thing about this entire story? Is the book the school gave as an alternate: Rick Riordan's Son of Neptune.
