More Censorship

I realize that there are many reasons for censorship, and certain books are inappropriate for children, but I was heartbroken when I saw in the Hit List for Children's Books that The Witches by Roald Dahl was include with A Light in the Attic by Shel Silverstein. These two books were childhood favorites of mine and I do not remember receiving any bad messages from them. I think many adults underestimate children's ability to differentiate from reality and make believe. I personally do not think that children are going to want to practice witchcraft after reading The Witches nor commit suicide after reading the poem Little Abigail and the Beautiful Pony. These books have been popular for a while - and it is because they are great children's books!
