Hey Everyone!
Banned Book Week starts Sept. 26th!!! No, put down your Nazi Fascist flags... this is about celebrating our ability to read books that have been banned or challenged. Hurray for freedom!! I made a quick video highlighting some of the reasons books are banned. Are those reasons good enough for you? Well they aren't for me! HURRAY FOR ACCESS TO BANNED BOOKS!!!
