Banned Books Week

Did you know that the American Library Association has a week (September 27th - October 4th) designated for Banned Books? This is not to celebrate banned books but to make people aware of the danger of banning books. During this week, children are encouraged to read books that have been banned by some schools and taught to value the freedom to read. Some of the books that have been banned in some places in the US are:
Lois Lowry's The Giver
Phyllis Reynolds Naylor's Alice series
Judy Blume's Are you there God? It's me Margaret
Mark Twain's The Adventures of Huckleberry Finn
J K Rowling's Harry Potter books
Lauren Myracle's TTYL
Would you like to be told what books you can read and what you can't?
