14 banned books that may surprise you

Why do some books get banned? In the case of "The Hunger Games'" by Suzanne Collins, the plot includes violence against children, perpetrated by other children, and that has got some parents, teachers, and school boards upset. "ttyl" by Lauren Myracle has themes of human sexuality and that, again, is upsetting for many adult readers. Many readers don't agree with the practice of banning books, but in cases like these they can at least comprehend what prompted it. But there are other books – titles like "Where's Waldo?" or "Sylvester and the Magic Pebble" – whose presence on a banned book list seems completely mysterious. The following 14 books seem innocent to many, but they have nonetheless found themselves on a banned book list at one time or another.
