I am planning on making some edits to this article soon. First, I am planning on adding to the lead section to make it more cohesive and give a better overview of the article. I am then planning on adding to the background and publication section to make the information more clear to readers. I will also be adding new sections for education uses, reviews, and controversy. Through these sections I hope to give readers a better overview of the book and its importance. I aim to add neutral and balanced content to the article by conducting research to find reliable sources. With these changes, the article will be closer to Wikipedia's recommendations for articles about books. Here is a link to my bibliography: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/User:Emilyc6411/All_American_Boys/Bibliography?preload=Template%3ADashboard.wikiedu.org_bibliography Emilyc6411 (talk) 21:40, 2 May 2021 (UTC)[reply]

I think the plot section is lacking in this article. Although it copies similar text from the lead section, it offers nothing else in regards to what the book specifically covers to get its point across. I feel as though an expanded description of the book's plot would elevate this article's status significantly. JohnnyHoya (talk)

The article only mentions two specific instances where this book has been banned at schools and in both situations, the ban was overruled. I think more information is needed to show examples of schools where the book is still banned. KelseyL9 (talk) 18:59, 3 October 2021 (UTC)[reply]
