A Florida school district just restricted access to a picture book about the life of Betty White

This is not a joke.

RT @FLFreedomRead

The picture book THAT’S BETTY: THE STORY OF BETTY WHITE was added to the restricted list in @ecpsfl today.

Challenged for being “content and age inappropriate” as outlined in HB1557!
