    The challenged book I recently read was Fahrenheit 451 by Ray Bradbury. This book has been challenged‚ and almost banned‚ for quite a while. I personally disagree with the statement that this book should be banned. This book has a very deep and meaningful background‚ and the good definitely outdoes the bad. The people who chose to ban this book did have a point‚ that foul language and violence is not good for a young student to read‚ but the good in this book should cover up the bad. The foul language

    Montag will be much happier with the book people because for once he can finally have an intellectual conversation with someone and exchange knowledge. The end of the novel ends on a more optimistic vibe because it shows the heros walking away with good intentions of re building a better society. The knowledge these men keep alive will be able to re start society one day. If Bradbury somehow brought Clarisse back into the story and she asked for a second time if Montag happy‚ he would have an unhesitant
