Like many people who have already commented, I grew up being allowed to read whatever I wanted. I assume my parents thought that if it was inappropriate, I'd either lose interest or ask questions about it. I don't think it's the place for schools, governments etc to ban books. Maybe in very limited/extreme circumstances... but generally I think it should be up to the parents. And even think, I think parents should encourage free choice so that kids can broaden their knowledge and understanding, learn how diverse the world can be, both in good and bad ways.

Forgot to post earlier. Interesting book. I meant to read it soon after I got it, but kept getting distracted by other books.
