Banned Books Week


2007 Banned Books Week: Ahoy! Treasure Your Freedom to Read and Get Hooked on a Banned Book

Midland High School is celebrating Banned Books Week this year. I mean, we are going all out and celebrating it. We are pushing the banned books list. We are telling kids to read and then read some more.

I started by telling them the fact that Harry Potter books have been challenged in 25 schools in 17 states, and they are aghast at the situation. Good. They should be aghast.

Celebrate the freedom to read.
