Order this Dangerous Book for your famikly or the bearest library


(Oklahoma City, Oklahoma) Oklahoma state legislators are calling a popular children's book about a gay prince "obscene" and saying it should reserved only for adults.

Seventy members of the legislature have signed a petition calling for the book to be removed from the children’s section and placed in the adult section of libraries.

The book, Prince and Prince, has been under attack by conservatives in several states for nearly two years. In the book, by Linda De Haan and Stern Nijland, Prince Bertie searches for love through a bevy of eligible princes before falling for Prince Lee. The 32 page book ends with the two princes sharing a kiss.
