There is a difference between engaging with problematic content as entertainment and engaging with it from an academic or critical perspective.

So yes I am suggesting that for the youngest readers, in elementary schools, we do in fact, keep these well-known problematic texts off of library shelves (like we do with countless media we deem inappropriate for young children) where they will be engaged with as entertainment first and foremost, and instead make them, to the extent that they must be engaged in the elementary years at all, a part of a literature curriculum where they can be encountered with guidance and through a contemporary lens.
