He was born in Cicero, IL in 1931. He would scream at us if we dared to scrape anything from the serving bowl into the garbage, even if it was only three peas. He would never throw away jars or plastic bags, and was at times completely incomprehensible. Then, while reading Maus, I noted a similar moment between Art and his father, and I realized, "They both grew up in the Great Depression!" Suddenly all these little quirks made sense to me, and I was able to anticipate things that might send him into a rage. My father is currently 90, and Maus transformed my relationship with him. To ban it over language and "mouse nudity" is highly problematic.<div><br></div><div>tt<br clear="all"><div><div dir="ltr"><div dir="ltr"><br><div>Timothy Toner</div><div>Librarian </div><div>John Hancock College Prep HS</div><div>5437 West 64th Pl</div><div>Chicago, IL 60638<br></div><div>773-535-2410</div><div>he | him | his</div><div><span style="color:rgb(68,68,68);font-size:small;line-height:16px"><i>Omnes mundum facimus</i></span><br></div></div></div></div><br></div></div><br><div class="gmail_quote"><div dir="ltr" class="gmail_attr">On Thu, Feb 3, 2022 at 11:53 AM Flaherty, Megan via AISLE <<a href="mailto:aisle@list.railslibraries.info" target="_blank">aisle@list.railslibraries.info</a>> wrote:<br></div><blockquote class="gmail_quote" style="margin:0px 0px 0px 0.8ex;border-left:1px solid rgb(204,204,204);padding-left:1ex">
