Camy, Both Huckleberry Finn and Tom Sawyer were removed from the children's department of the Brooklyn Public Library in 1905 because they set "bad examples for ingenuous youth." Mark Twain's letter about the incident is online at: The Bible and Huck Finn: Letter to Asa Don Dickinson http://www.historyillustrated.com/twain/texts/letters/letter051121.html There have been more recent complaints along the same lines. One of the funniest I've seen occurred sometime in the late 1990s. A teen ran away from home and flew to Hawaii. When he was found, he said he got the idea from Mark Twain. Apparently airlines are the modern equivalent of a raft. :-) Jim Zwick
