Hugging Sea Horse Book Is Too Racy For Schools, Tennessee Moms Group Says
HuffPost
In a steamy passage in a book conservative moms want banned, sea horses "twist their tails together and twirl gently around."
A children’s book with an illustration of hugging sea horses is too hot to handle for kids and should be banned from elementary schools in Williamson County, Tennessee, a chapter of the conservative group Moms for Liberty insists.
“Sea Horse: The Shyest Fish in the Sea” includes such steamy passages as: “They twist their tails together and twirl gently around, changing color until they match. ... The two of them dance until sunset and then she puts her eggs into his pouch.”
