Great choice….just last year, when I was still living in Houston, the school district just north of us removed this book from the shelves of the high school because of negative references towards God. Hmmmm.

Such a great book. I really need to open it again. Funny, I never thought of this before, but does it really take such a high temperature to burn a book? I’d think that since they’re paper they burn pretty easily. And I used to be foolhardy enough to try and read books around a campfire!

Thanks for the reminder of Farenheit 451. It was one of my favorite reads back in school, and I really want to go back and re-read it.
