According to PEN America, the number of Book Bans in the 2023-24 school more than doubled from the previous year.

Book bans are on the rise, threatening to silence authors and deprive us of the stories that help us understand ourselves and the world around us. Join us on the Banned Wagon – learn more about book challenges, pick up a challenged book, and speak out against censorship!
