Banned in Peru, IN School System (1992) along with 'Cujo' and 'Christine' because the books are "filthy."
Solonor Says Ban It Because: OK, so Mr. King (whom I barely survived living in the same town in Maine with) admits his books are the "Big Mac and fries" of novels, right? So, if we allow kids to read them, they'll sue the schools, just like McDonald's, see? Then, where would we be? Simple logic. Stop lawsuits. Ban the books.
