Chicken Meat Author RL Stine Edits Book Series, Changes Mental Health, Weight and Ethnicity

RL Stine assesses its popularity Goose meat Book series and adaptation of published work with more inclusive language. Scholastic’s move comes after Penguin hired sensitive readers to edit Roald Dahl’s books from language deemed inappropriate in today’s world.

However, there was so much opposition to Penguin’s move that the publisher announced that it would make unrevised versions of Dahl’s books available later this year under the banner “The Roald Dahl Classic Collection” and give readers the opportunity to choose which one they want read

The difference with what happened Goose meat is that the original author himself makes the changes and The times reported that more than 100 changes were made to the children’s horror novels. An example of a revision made was a book in which aliens abduct tall people, where the original book described them as having “at least six chins”, the revised version now says the people are “at least six foot six”.

In a 1998 re-release of the title Bride of the Living Doll, the ventriloquist dummy Slappy knocks a girl unconscious with a “Love Tap,” but the villain now casts spells. In the 1996 book Attack of the jack-o’-lanterns, a character is described as “tall and handsome, with dark brown eyes and a big, warm smile.” Lee’s African-American, and he’s quite proud when he goes and acts really cool, like the rappers in MTV videos. The revised version now calls the character “tall and handsome, with brown skin, dark brown eyes and a wonderful, warm smile.” He is a little stiff when he walks and he acts very cool.

In The Curse of Camp Cold Lake As of 1997, the summer camp boys are no longer referred to as “loud wolf whistle” and are now said to have “whistled loud.” The same year I live in your basement! was published, in which the novel’s protagonist asks, “Did he really expect me to be his slave—forever?” The main character now asks, “Did he really expect me to do this – forever?”
