[quote=Anonymous]Lest people really think children’s books used to be all rainbows and puppies: does anyone remember the book about the girl who was essentially abandoned? I don’t remember the title, but it was definitely a young adult novel. It depicted a lot of child abuse and it was absolutely eye opening for me when we read it in middle school. We have kids read the Diary of Anne Frank, which depicts horrific situations. Why shouldn’t they read about other horrific situations, like the shooting of an unarmed black person? [/quote]
