By: Mikayla Duvall What is a banned book? A banned book is a challenged book that was removed from shelves at certain places for various reason. Water For Elephants happens to be a banned book. The book was banned by parents at Bedford High School. By examining the graphic sexual content, foul language, and the circus life, it is clear that this book is still worth reading. The books graphic content doesn’t overshadow the literal merit in my opinion. On page 135 the book describes in great detail sexual content. That is really the only part the book gets really inappropriate. Except, there is another incident, but it is not as graphic. Along with the sexual content, this book has foul language
