[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Most of the old "Little Golden" books, but particularly Tootle. It is about a train who is different and won't stay on the tracks or do what trains are supposed to do. So the townspeople get together and basically crush his spirit so he will be a "good engine." Hate it so much. Terrible message about how being different is bad and conformity is good. [/quote] Yes, this is the same reason I dislike Rainbow Fish. Why would we want our kids to learn that it is bad to be different and better for everyone to be exactly the same? [/quote]
