Banned Books Week? I've never heard of that but it sounds great.

Banning Tolkien. Ugh, they don't have an English word to express my feelings.(well they do, but thier all unessasary on the Barrow Downs)

Just try sitting down with your principal. Tell him politley that you think he was wrong to ban Tolkien and give him good reasons why. Don't accuse him. Make it sound like his mistake is one anyone could make. [img]smilies/rolleyes.gif[/img] (ya right)

Explain what the book is about and how it's views are good ones.
Show him "Finding God In Lord of the Rings"
Explain Tolkien's conection to C.S. Lewis and back it up with evidence.

If that fails then try petitioning.
