Banned Books Week begins on Saturday, September 29, and the American Booksellers Association and the American Booksellers Foundation for Free Expression (ABFFE) have collaborated to produce "The Freadom List," a selection of titles for children and adults that have been most frequently challenged or banned.
The list -- 24 titles, ranging from The Adventures of Huckleberry Finn and The Bluest Eye to The Perks of Being a Wallflower -- includes full bibliographic information and, in many cases, quotes about the titles from independent booksellers in the Book Sense program. The list also features a "First Amendment Bookshelf," a selection of 17 important recent and backlist titles about free speech and free expression.
"The Freadom List" is available in a full-color PDF file on BookWeb.org, and the full First Amendment Bookshelf is available, with other Banned Books Week materials and information, at www.abffe.org.
