Thinker
I am looking for a book like The Teen Vogue Handbook: An Insider's Guide to Careers in Fashion, but for careers in movies, the Filming Industry. I am 13 and have no acting experience whatsoever, so an actor? Probably not, and plus I don't want to be famous, I'd rather be famous with my books.
So, where can I find a book listing jobs in the filming industry? or what is it called?
Answer
You might want to try "Careers in Focus: Arts and Entertainment" (Explores the top twenty-five careers in the arts in terms of the nature of the work, educational or training requirements, getting started, advancement possibilities, salary, employment outlook, and sources of more information.)
There is also a series that may help, it is called "Careers in Film and Television" The author of it is Lisa Rondinelli Albert. There are (I think) 5 books in this series.

Why was James and the Giant Peach condemned to the banned books list?

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.
