Thankfully, this book is only available online and isn’t readily available in your child’s library. I read the free e-book. Then I read the reviews and interviews. I can see why the response was so intense.   What Makes People Angry   The author, Mary Walling Blackburn, presents the topic of abortion in the form of a children’s picture book.
