    Hello All!

    This is a good one:

    The Giving Tree by Silverstein, Shel
    Book - 1964

    This book about a female apple tree that gives everything it
    has to a greedy boy throughout his life was banned at a library
    in Colorado in 1988 for being sexist and has been challenged in
    several U.S. schools because it "criminalized the forestry
    agency."

    Over the years, the book does not seem so evil anymore.
