One Book. Two Books. Now Look. Banned Book. An ode to Theodor Seuss Geisel—a liberal Democrat—whose award winning children’s books failed to pass the latest round of “inclusivity” according to the Overlords of Learning at Loudoun County Schools in Virginia.
The Loudoun County Sneetches had brains of lard. “We’re the best kind of Sneetch, we’re avant-garde.”
Working late into the night, sneaky Sneetch teachers gave such a fright. ‘Cause Whos down in Whoville were decidedly too white.
With their snoots in the air, they sniffed and they snorted, “Have nothing to do with those Seuss loving Sneetch sorts.”
“But it’s Seuss’ birthday,” Sneetch students said in dissent. Came the reply: “We meant what we said, and said what we meant.”
“Kids cannot, they should not, read Dr. Seuss! Too many racial undertones we’ve deduced.”
Those Seuss loving Sneetchs asked, “May we read him in a tree?” “NO!” came the word, “Not in a tree. Not anywhere—leave him be.”
High above in their academic tower, Sneetch teachers teetered and glowered:
“We Sneetches up top, we see great sights, Down at the bottom, readers have no rights.”
Now, the lard-brained Sneetches said another Thing 2: “Children may read A is for Activist, in class . . . or in a canoe.”
