Summary
In The Night Kitchen, a classic children's book, and other titles were challenged by a local Moms for Liberty chapter in Indian River County, Florida, leading to their removal from school libraries due to concerns over nudity and inappropriate content. The group's efforts in removing books prompted criticism from the Florida Freedom to Read Project and other individuals who disagreed with the censorship of literary works.
