The place that seems to ban most books is the US. Books like To Kill a Mockingbird, Animal Farm, Catcher in the Rye, Lord of the Flies to name a few. In all cases, especially the one with LOTR, I feel this is a needless form of censorship and goes against your right of freedom of expression. Your principal has no right to tell you what books you can and can't read in school. It is not offensive material nor is it promoting hate or violence. I think you could fight this and win and I know you would have the support of everyone on here.
