Why?
The book is being challenged because of parents complaints to schools in the Cherokee County school district. Parents believe that the book holds too much profanity and descriptions of drug abuse, sexually explicit conduct and torture.
Even though these accounts are true, none of the things that are listed are described in vague detail. The author was simply giving an inside look on how the early 1990's were.
