GRANBURY (CBSDFW.COM) – Controversy is brewing over two books in a Hood County library. Some parents are demanding that the books — which teach about the LGBT community — be banned.
Parent after parent spoke about this issue Tuesday morning at the Hood County Commissioners Court.
The two children’s books at the center of this debate are “My Princess Boy” by Cheryl Kilodavis and “This Day in June” by Gayle E. Pitman, both of which address LGBT issues. One of the books has already been moved to a different section of the library, but some parents maintain that they should be banned altogether.

Sounds like they’re trying to arouse the curiosity of children concerning fag sex techniques knowing said children are likely to explore for themselves. I think the whole thing goes back to the population control freaks, viz. the more children seduced to the fag lifestyle the fewer people will be having children. That, plus the fags in education trolling for new recruits.
It's not a "slippery slope," and libraries already are censors.
They don't carry books promoting pedophilia or bestiality, do they?
Why is one perversion preferable to another?
With children's books, there used to be reputable publishers who didn't choose topics that are inappropriate for the age group.
There's another problem that's been around for decades. That means it's affected today's parents. That's the desire a lot of parents to succumb to, wanting advanced children. When these parents choose materials for their youngsters, they should choose materials where the subject matter is age appropriate, but with a higher difficulty level of reading. Instead they have their children reading material above their maturity level, thus beyond the developmental stage they should be experiencing. The other outcome is gaps in the kinds of knowledge and values a child should be experiencing at younger ages.
The best way to avoid that is the classics and children's books at least twenty years old. The difficulty level will be built into the classics, those books a few decades old will be age-appropriate for themes.
Easy enough to remedy...
I’m guessing these books are in the fiction section. A parent could easily take them off the shelf and re-shelve them on a shelf in the non-fiction section.
Or, on a shelf “behind” a row of non-fiction.
