"Olivia the Pig" is a series of children's books...

...that just got yanked from my daughter's potential reading list.

I agree that book should be yanked from everyones reading list. Just goes to show the lenghts that the bluee shirt supporters will go to indoctrinate the next generation. The author of that book should face shame and scorn from those of us that treasure our liberty!

Please cite author's name so I can avoid purchasing any titles for the grandies.

Is there a page with a drawing showing the children not to scream and cry when the pigs grope their chests and put their hands down their pants?

A little google research on the text on the page finds this:

And a google image search finds this:

At least the illustration shows use of HHMD (too bad these were banned by Pistole). However, it is unclear why such a little piglet would need any sort of secondary. Olivia should have been able to use the WTMD, like they have at VCE.

If the NoS were used, we would see some bacon...If the little pig were groped, would it still squeal like a pig?

You guys always wanted to see the SOP. It looks like it just got posted.

It's strange that the authors, illustrators, and publishers would think that airport security would be relevant to the story they were telling in the book.

Also strange is that the clothing Olivia is wearing looks like prison garb.

They were not banned, they just are hardly ever used now. Of course, that will be a surprise to a child that may expecting the use of one, but instead gets groped by a stranger.

If the Nude-O-Scope is not properly calibrated, you could smell bacon.

I bought some books on Italian travel and language for my great-niece just recently and ran across this book in the process. Thank goodness for the reviews; they put me off completely. I would be horrified to give this as a gift!
