Turkey rules 'Rebel Girls' children's book should be treated like pornography
Good Night Stories for Rebel Girls is a best-selling book for young children of inspiring stories about women who have made history. But Turkey's government now says the book should be treated like pornography because it could have a "detrimental influence" on young people. This means it can only be sold to over eighteens and must be concealed from view in shops. Francesca Cavallo is the book's co-author.
