I remember my older brother had to read that in like fifth grade, but it got cut from the curriculum by the time I made it there.

What's the big deal with it?

We read this in school, and every single copy had been vandalised so the title was 'The Gay'.
Oddly nostalgic.

In my ghetto middle school we "read" this by having the class look at the book and listen to the audio version for every chapter. Then our tests were open book..

I was irritated the entire time I was reading this book, because I couldn't understand why he was calling the kid Young Bass. Then we started talking about it in class and the teacher said "young boss" and I'm like HOLY SHIT ARE YOU SERIOUS?

When I was reading The Hobbit, I thought his name was Biblo until I was halfway through the book. I am not a smart man.
