Controversial Books In K?Çô12 Classrooms And Libraries: Challenged, Censored, And Banned - 9781498569743

This book analyzes the history of book banning in K-12 classrooms and school libraries in the United States from the 1950s to the present. The author argues for the inclusion of controversial books in order to teach children to discover and debate values that are inconsistent with their own, rather than eliminating exposure to sensitive subjects.
