Marshall University does not ban books! The information is provided to let people know what has been banned/challenged elsewhere.

2021

This nonfiction picture book concerns a supposed mini-pig purchased by a gay couple. As the pig grows (and grows and grows), the couple finally moves to the country and starts an animal rescue farm. An Oregon public library patron was concerned about “homosexual content” and “how it would impact young readers.” Retained.
