Abortion | the last tabboo?

Roger Sutton responds to a NYT piece on abortion - naming it as one of the last tabboos in children’s fiction - abortion.

Roger could find less than twenty books in the Horn Book database with abortion featuring - Unbirthday being mentioned - and certainly worth a mention are Growing Up in a Hurry and My Darling, My Hamburger.
