Overview

• Authors and parents reached a settlement with Nassau County to return 36 books to school libraries after a four-month legal battle.
• The books were initially removed due to complaints from a conservative group and claims of obscenity and lack of circulation.
• The settlement acknowledges that 'And Tango Makes Three' is appropriate for all ages and contains no obscene material.
• Twelve of the returned books, including 'Beloved' and 'The Kite Runner,' will undergo further review and require parental consent for student access.
• This case is part of a broader national debate on book bans, with ongoing lawsuits challenging similar removals in other Florida counties.
