Sarah Bonner has been an Illinois middle school teacher for 20 years, and she has always tried to offer her students a diverse collection of books.

This year, a parent called the police over her book choice.

It started on Monday, March 13, 2023, when she held what she calls a “book tasting” for students.

“I wanted to give them a smattering of fiction and nonfiction to choose from on a day that we call "Reading Monday,'" Bonner, 42, told TODAY.com. “We just read and celebrate books.”

( More boogeyman tactics to distract voters from GOP failures: fail to end poverty, fail to keep kids safe from being shot, fail to keep people safe from a government collapse. The list goes on and on and why they require so many distractions.)

4. Republicans think these kids can work in meat packing plats

but are too innocent to read challenging literature

5. They hate that kids don't hate people

until you teach them too.

And acting like absolutely normal things are absolutely normal doesn't teach kids to hate correctly. It's all about hate. These aren't pleasant people with pleasant ideas or ideals.
