I was on twitter and came across a list of the most banned or challenged books from 2000-2009 and I was astonished. Amongst the titles on the list are Judy Bloom books. Judy Bloom? Who bans Judy Bloom? It literally made my jaw drop. So, as a personal challenge to myself, I will attempt to read and review at least 10 titles from the list.
I welcome my readers to join me in this challenge.
Banned Books
I teach 10th grade English, and I have that poster in my classroom. At least two or three times a week I have students who are astounded by the books on the list! (stumbled my way over here from http://www.myfriendamysblog.com looking forward to the book read!
ReplyDeleteWelcome. It's a shame those works are banned. I actually taught some of those books when I was teacher.
