This week is Banned Books Week! A week of celebrating Freedom of Speech through books that were challenged or even banned.
The books featured on our Banned Books Week display are books that have been challenged or targeted for banning.
Here are just a few titles that you will find in a list of books that were challenged or banned:
The Harry Potter Series by J.K. Rowling, the Perks of Being a Wallflower by Stephen Chbosky, to Kill a Mockingbird by Lee Harper, the Golden Compass by Philip Pullman, the Twilight Series by Stephanie Meyer, the Adventures of Huckleberry Finn by Mark Twain, and the Lovely Bones by Alice Sebold.
Recognize any of these "potentially harmful" books? Chances are, you've already read them in your classrooms or they may even be your favorite books.
