I will be starting with the classics and I hope to make my way through the entire list of banned books, provided by the ALA. It may take me a while, but I'm gonna try!
What banned books are you reading?
These lists comes from what The ALA has compiled. I do recommend checking out their website, it's a valuable resource. http://www.ala.org/advocacy/banned/bannedbooksweek
