Contrary to any rumors you may have heard.....
the King Cake Mardi Gras pig graphic was not removed out of fear of offending Muslim children. I just thought I’d tone things down for Lent.
When I read this story it made me laugh........
The head teacher at a school in Britain is defending her decision to ban books that contain stories about pigs because they might offend Muslim children. because A) it’s a stupid idea; B) a close family member collects all things porcine, including books; C) pigs are such a cute staple in children’s literature and the teacher is asking the kids to read about the pigs, not eat them!
