Controversial Children's Picture Books

The list author says: "Believe it or not, many classics of the picture book world have been seen as controversial and even been challenged in schools and censored! While not all of these titles are necessarily on the challenged list, they often can cause some raised eyebrows and sputterings in certain circles. ^_^ And yes, there's a lot of overtly challenged picture books that aren't on this list. I'm trying to pick things that folks might not have heard of or will be surprised by." (sic)
