Another whacko! Heck, they might want to ban the jewish and muslim stories from their schools too or why not remove all the books that talk about alternative religons or beliefs. Mankind is doomed with people like this in society.

Believe it or not, the Harry Potter series is at the very top of the list of most challenged books of the 21st century: http://www.ala.org/ala/pressreleases2006/september2006/HarryPottermostchallenge.htm

Apparently a lot of people are opposed to reading about magic or the occult. Well, that and the fact that the Harry Potter series is wildly popular among children and the fact that most book challenges come from parents make the books easy and likely targets.

They can't ban Macbeth and Cinderella!! They might as well ban all children's novels! Grrr....
