 This development was triggered by the protests lodged by Korean-American students in the Greater Boston area in September, 2006.The issue came to head after 2006, when 13 parents in a Greater Boston community urged the book be removed from the English curriculum of Dover-Sherborn Middle School, resulting in the convening of a schools committee which recommended a suspension of the book in November 2017.The book was later reinstated at the school, to be used in a modified curriculum.
