After the book 'Maus' was banned by a Tennessee school board, a bookstore in Nashville put together a drive to make copies available to the public. It has since raised over 100 copies of the book, which features elements of the Holocaust.
“We put together a drive through our website and through our social media that offers people an opportunity to buy the book at a discounted price,” owner John Derr toldSome parents agree with the school board’s decision to remove the book from schools, while others feel they are erasing a piece of history.
So far, Fairytales Bookstore has raised over a hundred books. The donations will go to area middle and high school teachers. “I think books are a great way to teach children about history, even parts of our history that are dark or tragic such as the Holocaust,” Derr said. The banning led to a surge in sales for the book. According to Forbes, more than 14,000 copies were bought the fourth week of January.
