The book ‘And Tango Makes Three’ tells the story of two penguins raising a baby chick in Central Park zoo. State-run libraries in Singapore have deemed the children’s book inappropriate and are to destroy all copies following complaints the content was against the city-state’s family values.The decision triggered an online petition and an open letter to spare the books with thousands of signatures collected. Some are calling for a boycott of the libraries and their events.
