Every year, the American Library Association releases a list of the ten books that are most frequently challenged in public and school libraries, by folks wanting them removed for various reasons.
And at the top this year’s Most Frequently Challenged Books is: And Tango Makes Three, which daddytypes.com describes as:
Hetero penguins marching to the sea and back to mate - good. Perv penguins raising a li’l baby penguin - bad. Very bad.
But where does it end? First they want to raise young, next they’ll be wanting to fly!
You can’t trust these rogue penguins, not for one second…
Penguin Lust!!!
Perverted Penguin Paen Prods Parents Protest
There, fixed it for you.
People who complain about that book should be paid a visit to by this horny seal.
I was really hoping this would be about “Mr. Popper’s Penguins” but I guess not.
I wanna know what happened to the rock.
It moved to San Francisco and took up with a big butch boulder.
Here’s the summary of objections to And Tango Makes Three from the ALA’s Most Frequently Challenged Books list:
I sort of understand the sad and bizarre thinking that allows some people to brand the book as a homosexuality-endorsing, anti-family, sexist, offensive-to-religion, unsuitable-for-children something-or-other.
But “Anti-Ethnic”? How? Were Rockhoppers, Adelies, and Chinstraps under-represented?
Well, I’m sure not everyone is protesting. The title should be “Perverted Penguin Paen Prods Prudish Parents Protest”
And they’re raising a whole quarry of little pebbles.
I want to know if they got their rocks off.
Oh god, that makes Douglas Adams so much more perverted.
“The secret is to bang the rocks together”.

(Darn it, I need a smiley that is half :dubious: and half :eek: )
I don’t know. They’re always stone.
BTW, the word is spelled “paean.”
