A Wrinkle in Time is considered antiauthoritarian and anything with a fantasy theme is considered the work of the devil by evangelical religious groups.
Little Black Sambo is considered racist by a lot of hyper liberal groups. Mind you these people have no sense of context. They also don't like Mark Twain for the same reason.
