This Week Is Banned Books Week

[Book Calendar]

Hello, this week is banned book week. September 26- October 3. It is a good week to ponder censorship. Name and think about your favorite banned book. I can name several-- Sylvester and the Magic Pebble, In The Night Kitchen, Huckleberry Finn and many others. Think on it. Name your favorites.

My favorite is To Kill a Mockingbird by Harper Lee

I'm celebrating Banned Books Week on my blog!!

This week we will be reviewing/discussing some of my favorite banned or challenged books as well as learning ways we can help protect our favorite books from being banned and how to get involved!

Animal Farm was suppressed during WWII because it was critical of our "ally," the Soviet Union.

And of course there is always Fanny Hill.
