'Maus' hits Amazon bestseller list after Tennessee school district ban

The graphic novel 'Maus' has landed on the Amazon bestseller list after a school board in McMinn County, Tennessee, banned the book from its 8th-grade curriculum. The book, which won a Pulitzer Prize in 1992, is the story of author Art Spiegelman's parents' time in Nazi death camps, the mass murder of Jews, and his mother's suicide years later. In the book, Jews are mice, Poles are pigs and Nazi Germans are depicted as cats.
