@cdendy76.bsky.socialOne more! The Librarian of Basra tells the story of Alia Muhammad Baker, who struggled to save her community's books from the devastation of war in Basra, Iraq, an act of courage we should all celebrate. #challengedbooks #bannedbooks #BannedBooksWeek www.youtube.com/watch?v=YZRG...
@cdendy76.bsky.socialLast challenged #picturebook today: Strega Nona by the remarkable Tomie dePaola. It falls under the category of #challengedbooks #bannedbooks that apparently promote witchcraft and the occult ... Enjoy!
@cdendy76.bsky.socialJabari Jumps is a lovely exploration of the excitement-fear felt when trying something new but scary ... It was swept up in a district's mass pulling and restricting of books that fell under the dreaded DEI label. #bannedbooks #challengedbooks #BannedBooksWeek
@cdendy76.bsky.socialAndrea Beaty and David Roberts' #picturebooks are wonderful. Sofia Valdez, Future Prez was challenged nominally because some of the background characters project LGBTQ+ themes. #bannedbooks #challengedbooks #BannedBooksWeek
@cdendy76.bsky.socialNext in challenged #picturebook for #BannedBooksWeek: Pink Is for Boys by Robb Pearlman and Eda Kaban! Two of my three kids loved this one when they were little! (The first was already 13 when it came out.) #bannedbooks #challengedbooks
@cdendy76.bsky.socialRunning behind on these but here's another fabulous challenged #picturebook for #BannedBooksWeek: Imani's Moon by JaNay Brown-Wood and Hazel Mitchell! #bannedbooks #challengedbooks

@danricewrites.bsky.socialRead the books "the man" calls dangerous. Be a rebel—read Animal Farm and think dangerous thoughts. Short read, big ideas. Read now: wix.to/2t4rylv

@jthume.bsky.socialThe only thing that #bannedbooks did to me was make me smarter about our government.

@littlerights.bsky.socialWhy are the funnest books often banned?
Our founder and her family loved this book series, and we had no idea it was even controversial. More info in the alt text.
Happy Banned Book Week! 📚✨
@penamerica.bsky.social“We lose the opportunities to understand each other,” McCormick told us. “We lose the opportunity to be uncomfortable, to really face up to the world as it is, and to grapple with it together.”
