Why are books challenged?
"Books usually are challenged with the best intentions—to protect others, frequently children, from difficult ideas and information. Censorship can be subtle, almost imperceptible, as well as blatant and overt, but, nonetheless, harmful." American Library Association
We hope you will join us in fight against censorship by reading a banned book!
