13. I'm trying to comprehend

what books they would have children read OR do they just not want them to read at all?

14. Good question. I had both these books

in my classroom when I taught 5th grade. When I went back to third I gave The Giver to my teammates who were still teaching 5th grade. I kept a couple of copies for me as I was the purchaser of the books.

4. Banned books will be extra interesting to kids

Probably will read more nowthat they are banned.

Catcher in the Rye is an anthem for younger people.

Edit: I guess they will have to ban some movies next.

7. Violent reactions

Several shootings have been associated with Salinger's novel, including Robert John Bardo's murder of Rebecca Schaeffer and John Hinckley Jr.'s assassination attempt on Ronald Reagan. Additionally, after fatally shooting John Lennon, the delusional fanatic Mark David Chapman was arrested with a copy of the book that he had purchased that same day, inside of which he had written: "To Holden Caulfield, From Holden Caulfield, This is my statement".

10. Maybe. But banning anything makes people read more.

11. Catcher in the Rye. Was not a fan.

Don't know why that caught on -- seemed like a whole book of nothing but whining of a guy who hadn't grown up yet.

5. Nevada checking in

I've read or watched some of them on TV, some I haven't. One Book I've read was (the book thief) and it was a movie and a book. It's highly recommended before they turn on that one. But it's a good thing we can still read books online and order them as well. This book burning can't stand. Love my books

6. I have this ad my Facebook banner.

The wing nuts are pissed.

9. reading those books

when I was a less than a good student, due to less interest caused by moving every year and always having to play catch up.
Reading these books made me learn to love to read and understand the world around me.
