This week is Banned Books Week. We pay tribute to and recognize works and authors whose work has been banned or challenged. We also celebrate the freedom to read.
Please see the website http://www.ala.org/ala/oif/bannedbooksweek/bannedbooksweek.htm for more information on banned book week for a list of titles.
Here are a few children's books that have been placed on the list:
How To Eat Fried Worms by Thomas Rockwell
The Adventures of Huckleberry Finn by Mark Twain
The Harry Potter Series (check out the new one: Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows by J. K. Rowling)
In the Night Kitchen by Maurice Sendak
