While noting that Scarry's work did get "kids asking questions," DiLeo also said that parents of the 1970s thought the book was admirable, if problematic. This spurred the changes.

"He was showing a very 50s type of life," says DiLeo. "The moms were in dresses, and the construction workers were always men.


The 1950's were actually the very best years for American prosperity. There is nothing wrong with those years.

To encourage the destruction of the traditional way of life that brought us everything we have is sad. Fortunately, Scarry is long since dead and so can not see how badly his books have been corrupted.
