Went there today with my kids to get them some books. There used to be a section in the kids books with nothing but Dr. Seuss. Did not see a single Dr. Seuss book, but I did see a children’s book on Vaccines to replace those books.

ETA: either that or they sold out of all copies and quickly replaced with some other garbage.

I was told only a few were being removed.

But also many of his books are top sellers now. It may simply be sold out.

I wonder what these places are doing with all the books they’re removing?

Selling them on eBay for $$$$?

The books are selling out everywhere. The B&N website still offers plenty Dr Seuss.

It’s a possibility, but with all of the Ginsburg, Fauci, and Obama books littering the children’s section, it would not surprise me of they pulled them all.

I seriously doubt this. Why didn't you ask someone who works there?

Because the kids found something else they wanted. And the only store workers there were at checkout.

We’re you unable to speak to the people at the checkout area?

Or did you just think it would be easier to start rumors on a website in an effort to be edgy?

Yeah, blood. Might wanna change your title, considering there's absolutely no indication that it's true.

I’m not joking. But eBay has removed the ability to sell Dr Seuss books on their website. Meir Kampf still available tho.
