Banned Books Week

To give some information if people don't want to click the link:-

You have to:-

• Choose a favorite banned/challenged book and talk about what the book meant to you and how you would feel if someone prevented you from reading it.
• A reading of a banned or challenged book. The video should include information on where and why the book was banned or challenged. You may also wish to add your thoughts on the importance of keeping that particular book on library or bookstore shelves.
• Discuss an eyewitness accounts of local challenges.
• For those who are camera shy, you can still participate in the Banned Books Virtual Read-out by creating a video montage that centers on banned/challenged books.

I don't think this is something I'd do - I've yet to find one of these banned books that have actually been interesting enough to want to finish
