The Best Man by Richard Peck is considered pornography by Duval County officials and has been banned from school libraries, Popular Information reports.
However, Common Sense Media, an independent non-profit that evaluates books for parents and schools, found nothing objectionable: “Some talk among the kids about dating, but nothing serious or sexually charged. A gay relationship between two adults figures into the plot. Archer makes a few references to his pregnant teacher and her sonograms. Archer’s mom jokes with him about finding him in a cabbage patch, but they skirt the talk of where babies really come from.”
