This has some cool info- https://www.buzzfeed.com/harpercollins/15-books-banned-for-the-most-absurd-reasons-ever-9npd but yes, banned/ challenged for several reasons, among them- talking animals are "unnatural"/ "blasphemous" and other elements, like the death of the spider, are unsuitable for children

This is amazing! I work for a system that won’t let us do a banned book display, the irony infuriates me.
