With children there will always be a line, it's just difficult to say what that line is. Especially because in some cases (though not the one with the girl in your class) some children and teens are more mature than others. It can be a tough call.

I'm a teacher and actually watched our media specialist ban certain books on the accelerated reader test. She removed books from the shelves of the book fair and blocked their ability to take tests on them even if their parents purchased the book for them. She didn't believe it was material that middle schoolers should read about. I wonder if she let them read Jay Asher's 13 Reasons Why? I am no longer at that school. The school I'm at now just wants students to read. However, I did confiscate the pornographic book the young girl brought in and called the mother when she told me her mother gave it to her to read in my class. I didn't think her mother wanted this child to be reading about sexual positions in class. Ha Ha I love this challenge.

I'm totally signing up for this one, I don't care that my TBR pile is coming out of every orifice....iI was actually thinking of starting up a challenge for banned books, but someone else clearly had the idea first haha. Good luck with A Clockwork Orange, I never made it past the second page. ^_^ What a groovy book challenge!
