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.
