Banned Books Week 2018: Team Mascot’s Favorite Challenged Books
Posted on by mascotproducts

Each year, the American Library Association brings together authors, librarians, publishers, and book lovers from all walks of life in celebration of Banned Books Week. This year, Banned Books Week takes place from September 23rd to the 29th. Though none of our titles at Mascot Books have been challenged, we support free speech and the end of censorship for all authors and books. In celebration of free thought, our blog editor, Emily, asked around the Mascot Books office to find out everyone’s challenged titles.
