Scholastic found that it either had to give in to the hardliners who wanted to ban books for children or to not allow that, and they seem to have decided to give in.
It’s an option in all states to receive books that some legislators have declared illegal in their states.
EDIT: I think there’s a misunderstanding between us here. The only issue I’m picking here is that no matter if they made the right choice or not, they did cave/give into the hardliners. Will this choice help book fairs continue and scholastic to make money, definitely. Did they cave though, also I think so.
