Anyone know why this particular book is getting removed from publication? (as of Mar 2021) Brings back so many warm memories, and I credit with setting me down the path of being a linguistics, script, and Unicode geek. For me, it awakened a wonder in the diversity of world languages and cultures.

Duncan I just read this book because I like to break the rules! My guess is it's the Nazzim of Bazzim who rides on a Spazzim that broke the woke camel's back…moreI just read this book because I like to break the rules! My guess is it's the Nazzim of Bazzim who rides on a Spazzim that broke the woke camel's back. The Nazzim is a vaguely middle-eastern looking fellow w/a smile on his face who rides on a Sapzzim a vaguely looking camel-like fellow w/a smile on his face too. Other than a completely neutral reference to Columbus as an 'explorer' and not as a monster of history, I can't think of anything in this book that would cause offense. There is nothing at all offensive about this book other than the cowards who control the publication of this book and have withdrawn it from the Dr. Seuss library.(less)
