I have always loved to read. I especially enjoyed reading Dr. Seuss books with my grandparents and my parents when I was little. On Dr. Seuss’s 117th Birthday, a day that has been memorialized as “Read Across America Day”, Seussville — the company that oversees his book production — announced that they would be banning six of them.
Cordova, do you remember when the school board in the Valley banned a few books? We all rallied against it then. And we were successful. They reversed course.
But, are you rallying against this book ban? Did your perspective change because a group of so-called “experts” at Seussville think that Dr. Seuss was racist? Have you become so “woke” that you no longer oppose book bans?
If you still believe that we should read banned books, if you believe in opposing book bans, if you have the audacity to think for yourself, speak out against this nonsense. Join me in demanding that Seussville change course. I believe in banning book bans.
