Petition Stop US novels exiting the curriculum

More details

Michael Gove has announced that US novels are going to be banned from the GSCE English curriculum. This means that British children won't be reading stories such as 'Of Mice and Men' and 'To Kill a Mockingbird' which are some of the greatest novels ever written.
Just because a novel was written in another country, doesn't mean that it isn't good.
Please sign this petition to stop some of the best books ever written exiting the curriculum of future generations.
