Yes, but the same people who wish to ban this book also wish to make it a crime to have these thoughts. Also, of interest is the fact that in Britain (from what I understand having read about it on some photography forums where a photographer complained about being hassled for taking pictures at a ski resort -- not only were the children mixed with adults, but they were so bundled up that you couldn't make out anything at all), simply having photos of children (fully clothed children doing normal childhood things) is a crime if you also happen to profess to be a paedophile. Thought police indeed.
