What is your opinion.
Do not answer with a list of books, put your answer as a single novel, and why you believe it is the greatest book you have ever read or why it is the greatest book ever written.
I don't want any jokes, I wanted some serious opinions. Thanks.

Why was James and the Giant Peach condemned to the banned books list?
Totoro C
It's such a great book - what kind of an idiot would put this book on the 'banned book list'?!?!
WHY?!?!?!?
Answer
In the case of James and the Giant Peach, a challenge was brought to the school advisory council in Indian River County, Florida, because of the story's mystical element: magic crocodile tongues given to James by a mysterious old man serve as fertilizer to his aunts' decrepit peach tree.
The Times of London reported that James and the Giant Peach was once banned in a Wisconsin town because a reference to Spider licking her lips could be "taken in two ways, including sexual."
Other challenges to James and the Giant Peach are a bit more conventional. The use of the word "a$$" led to a 1991 challenge in Altoona, Wisconsin. One year later, a woman in Hernando County, Florida, took issue with Grasshopper's statement, "I'd rather be fried alive and eaten by a Mexican!", as well as references to snuff, tobacco and whiskey. Her complaints to her 10-year-old daughter's school principal led to review by the regional school board.
