Banned and Challenged Books
In celebration of Freedom to Read week in Canada (February 18-24, 2024), explore a list of banned and challenged books of yesterday and today. Banned books are those prohibited by law or to which free access is not permitted by other means. LeVar Burton's advice to kids about banned books applies to adults as well. "Read the books they don’t want you to. That’s where the good stuff is."
