Via Boing Boing, I’ve learned that this is Banned Books Week. The ALA has a great kit for teachers and libraries. Exploring these books is a great way to remember the history of our country and the progression of social mores and taboos through time. I suspect there are valuable lessons for our modern times in some of those books, as well.

They’re also offering, via Audible, a free chapter of 2004’s most challenged book, The Chocolate War.

Here’s the poster. Love the quotes:
