Re Banned books -- any of your childhood favourites banned?

Books are not "banned" in the U.S.A. They may be challenged by parents in specific schools or school systems, and even removed from school reading lists and school libraries. This does not constitute a ban nor does it have any bearing on the general availability of the book. If you want your child to read any challenged book all you have to do is go to either a bookstore or a public library and you will find that that title is readily available. As a parent it is important for you to remember that you are the arbiter of your child's exposure. The school system cannot dictate to you.

Lots of the books I read as a child were banned. But I can't say as I've seen them "ripped" from the shelves.

For example, almost everything of Judy Blume's has been banned -- mostly because it talked about teen sex and growing up issues in a real way. The same could be said of Cynthia Voigt's books. In today's world, harry potter has been banned for talking about witchcraft. Roald Dahl's "The witches" has also been banned for the same reason.

Hey there,

As parents, you're the most important first step in your children's journey into the wonderful world of reading. It is up to you to create the most supportive environment that turns your child on to reading - such as reading aloud to them often during the day and before bedtime, and placing age appropriate books for children around the house, so that the child will have access to plenty of books. Reading often to your child will help develop their interest in books and stories, and soon they will want to read stories on their own.
