Do you think Flowers in the Attic by V.C. Andrews is appropriate for High school students? - attic writing
I have to ban flowers in the attic of a proposal, the book in the language arts. I must write a speech, saying that if I feel the book should be censored, is restricted or prohibited. I thought the book to students of the filtering of the secondary and higher education. What do you think?

Attic Writing Do You Think Flowers In The Attic By V.C. Andrews Is Appropriate For High School Students?
10 comments:
I think students are very undervalued compared to the rest of the population. And the books that are not reasonable, it can in school so that students see the value in pounds of the content on the surface and in the future be able to read books, how can they learn to read much.
Or are passed around at the end as "" like deebakes recalls.
I think it is appropriate. More seriously, the events in the book as fiction, Flowers in the Attic things pale in comparison to high school students are in the real world.
Yes, I did as I was about 14 years, and I loved it. Take a look at the book again as an adult, I thought it was not as good as I thought it was like ninth-graders, in fact, it seems that much has been written for the readers of school age, and his characters are teenagers and young children . The novel begins with a good number of good and evil, but when certain characters do things that would normally be morally taboo (incest? Be Admired), Andrews, forcing his readers to be taken to assess their own notions of good and evil, and to that the company can be in extreme conditions.
I read the book and it really surprised by some of the things (which included not only in this series, but in others) by the author, and I would say that the restriction to students very well.
For if we would have been censored censorship, approximately half or more of the book.
I would also be limited. I have the whole series again should the school - went the rounds and they were quite surprising to us because they are scenes of sex and includes all sorts of things that we do not see the books I read!
I think it wouldnt be right .. I mean really, his high school .. I must say that I havnt read the book, but I saw the movie .. I do not know if the other book, which is worse than in the movie, I do not think it is ..
I hope to help you.
Appropriate.
Well ... I have read the book in the middle of the school (as the others we read the series in secret, he goes from girl to woman)
In fact, it is of me in 7th Class confiscated, because I am reading ... wait ... Torah class. (yes, taught the kind of reading of the Torah, in Hebrew by an ultra-Orthodox rabbi). Surprisingly it back to me after spring break (but I remember having to fear to do to wait that long.)
But this is only my story. I do not think that it censored, restricted or prohibited? Unless you're also ban books because they are badly written (books by VC Andrews, who really are), I say no Jose. Did I read books when I started to drag adult books like "Clan of the Bear" is my father's library which were exciting to be replaced "sex" scenes. "I do not think any flowers in the attic is a good book, but he was fascinated by it, at that age, I read it and I'm not so much the worse for him and I have never been tried, mainly localk children in the attic, and the horrific abuse and mental health as a result of reading the book subject. By banning something makes it attractive because it is forbidden, and it is probable that any small SA, their hands on it you want - in the library, the library, everywhere.
As someone who can read it in HS, I say that none of my friends who also read at that age, I thought it was worse than fiction. Would be found in Class 6 and higher (the first call,) the book anyway, to understand the difference between real life and history. I remember arriving at the worst of everything and just think of "gross". That is all. (I also thought that the protagonist - Cathy? - Soooo was stupid and could not understand why all children, not just in a week to escape.)
I would say that I agree with the contents of the restriction to high school for young adults, but I think the taste of the letter that young adults should read for school. Do not get me wrong, I read a lot of VC Andrews when I was young (much younger than high school, I admit), but the style is very gothic structure formula, and while entertaining, I think, do not write so well. Much better than candy read in their spare time to look at something for school, when we compare the structure of a Gothic novel, better written, though less explicit, such as Rebecca or Jane Eyre to.
Just my two cents! And good luck with your speech!
