A school district in the suburbs of Fort Worth, Texas, has demanded that an illustrated version of 'The Diary of Anne Frank,' as well as the Bible and dozens of other titles, be removed from its shelves and digital catalogues. 'Anne Frank's Diary: The Graphic Adaptation,' is a 2019 illustrated retelling of the famous diary from Israeli filmmaker Ari Folman and illustrator David Polonsky. The school district in question is The Keller Independent School District in Keller, Texas, where a district executive named Jennifer Price requested the removal of the book and others in an email, a copy of which was obtained by the Jewish Telegraphic Agency, who originally reported the news.
