The public libraries in New York City and Denver, Colorado have both recently stated they will continue to lend out all of the author\u2019s books.<\/p>\n<p>This came after Dr. Seuss Enterprises announced they stopped printing and selling six titles, including \u201cIf I Ran the Zoo,\u201d \u201cThe Cat\u2019s Quizzer,\u201d and \u201cScrambled Eggs Super\u201d over racist stereotypes. Following the decision, the Denver Public Library issued a <a href=\"https:\/\/www.thedenverchannel.com\/news\/local-news\/denver-public-library-wont-pull-any-dr-seuss-books-from-collection\">statement<\/a> that said libraries must balance the core values of \u201cintellectual freedom\u201d with the harmful stereotypes found in children\u2019s classics.<\/p>\n<div id=\"attachment_2382895\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><img decoding=\"async\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-2382895\" loading=\"lazy\" class=\"wp-image-2382895 size-full\" src=\"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/03\/GettyImages-51028330.jpg\" alt=\"NEW YORK - JULY 6: A Dr. Seuss book is seen as children play during a press preview of an interactive exhibition dedicated to Dr. Seuss at the Children&#039;s Museum of Manhattan July 6, 2004 in New York City.
