Burkhardt said that after reading the Scholastic book with the “single kiss,” she “looked for other books that gave me pleasure.” This “led to internet searches” that Burkhardt will “never forget.” By the time she was 13, Burkhardt says her porn addiction left her depressed and suicidal.
Burkhardt cited her story as a reason to restrict access to Drama , a novel published by Scholastic. The book includes this image of two people kissing:

Burkhardt’s appearance was promoted by SkyTree Book Fairs, a newly formed organization marketing itself as “an alternative to the sexually explicit content distributed in Scholastic’s book fairs.”
