In response to protest organizer Kelley Wolcott's open request to "coordinate" a "family day," another mailing list member offered up socialist literature for use during the festivities.

"I have a story book called Tales for Little Rebels: A Collection of Radical Children's Literature, with stories ranging from Dr. Seuss to Bolshevik sponsored 'Fairy Tales for Worker's Children,'" Nicolas Moselle Allen wrote. "Let me know if you would like this!"

A publisher's blurb for "Tales for Little Rebels" introduces the book by noting that "[r]ather than teaching children to obey authority, to conform, or to seek redemption through prayer, twentieth-century leftists encouraged children to question the authority of those in power. Tales for Little Rebels collects forty-three mostly out-of-print stories, poems, comic strips, primers, and other texts for children that embody this radical tradition."
