Why is it Banned?
In 1995 The Giver was challenged by a parent in Franklin County Kansas on multiple grounds. The book was banned for its multiple counts of murder, suicide, and the degradation of motherhood. The book was banned from elementary libraries in the state. Even though it was banned from libraries it still remained available for classroom use at any teacher's discretion. In my own opinion though I don't believe that the book should be banned because someone took something in a different way than the writer meant to imply.
The so called murders in this book was not like most people would think it wasn't like a gunshot or anything like you see in the news. These murders were people being put down by a needle. This really is not as
