Every year books are challenged. Sometimes it's the same books over and over. My opinion on banning books? I think it shouldn't be allowed. If a parent doesn't want their child to read a book, then that's their business. But no one should be telling other adults or children of others that something isn't appropriate.
To be honest, I think a lot of time, these adults don't give their kids enough credit. Reading about teens drinking, partying, having sex, etc... it's not going to convince a teenager to do those things. So, in honor of banned books week, I'm giving away a wonderful book that has been challenged and banned numerous places.
