The American Library Association promotes Banned Books Week each year to celebrate the freedom to read and to call attention to regular challenges to that freedom. As I read over the list of Banned and Challenged Classics, I was surprised at how many of them I had read. Some of them I liked, some of them not so much. But, I was free to read them and form my own opinion of them. And that’s the point.
I challenge you to look over that list of banned and challenged classics, read one you haven’t read before, and tell us about it here.
Banned Books Week: September 22−28, 2013
