Happy Banned Books Week
September 29th
Banned Books Week was created in 1982 by the American Library Association to celebrate our freedom to read. The ALA website has a fascinating list of last year’s most frequently challenged authors and books (Mark Twain?! Maya Angelou?); there’s also a list of banned or challenged 20th century classics, like Lolita and The Catcher in the Rye.
What’s your favorite banned book?
