ATHENS, Ga. — A North Georgia bookstore shut down its book fair at a private school after an administrator told store staffers to hide a book that has gay characters, according to a report.
Avid Bookshop of Athens said it was told to hide “The Best Man” by Richard Peck by an official with Athens Academy, the Banner-Herald reported.
“After the book was removed, we were told that it had to be completely hidden from view and placed back in a box so no child could accidentally discover it,” according to a Facebook post by the store.
