This, I'm sure is probably a bit of a controversial topic, but do you agree with book banning? Seeing books that helped me discover my love of reading on these lists makes me sad. Do you agree with this quote by Matthew MacDonald, “It makes some people question why a certain book is being banned, leading them to seek out that book.” I certainly do. Looking at these lists, I realized how many of these classic, thought-provoking books I first encountered in high school English. It saddens me that my children will not be able to study these same classics in the classroom. Perhaps a trip to the library and book store will be in our near future to pick up a couple of these timeless reads.
