From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Simplify the language especially in the section labelled "effects of white beauty standard"

Add to the section titled "About the author"

Add to the themes e.g. Violence/ discrimination / sexual abuse / animal abuse / incest

Find more cases for the "controversy" section to make the article more up to date. e.g. Find a case form 2017

Could find cases for why some believe that it should be read in schools and not banned etc..

List of scenes making it unsuitable for a classroom text?

The picture of the book could be made more up to date

Also may want to list how many pages a paper back book has because it only gives the number for a hardback book.

More precise citations are needed for this article as it has insufficient inline citations

Add last names to publishers

Add that the novel takes place in 1941
