I was trying to figure out what reason this book could possibility be one of the 100 most banned books from 1990-2000.   I thought maybe the crazy pictures that seem a little “druggy”.  But apparently it was banned for spreading the occult and making witches seem harmless, nice, and fun.  My main thought was that the illustrator was a friend of Salvador Dali. It doesn’t bother me that this is about a witch.  The book doesn’t bother me at all, and it shouldn’t be banned, but seriously, if you have not read this, do.  Just for the illustrations.
