Last week was Banned Books Week. Throughout the USA, for various reasons, all kinds of books are banned in schools and in libraries. We here at BookPeople embrace all kinds of literature – banned or not! To celebrate, our storytime today will include only banned books – including Sylvester and the Magic Pebble and other 'controversial' picture books. Hooray for Freedom of Speech!
