Hello everyone and welcome to a tour of the 13 most challenged books of 2022! Whether it be in schools or public libraries, these texts have been fought against by those who look to censor literature. This list of books was compiled by the American Library Association.
On this tour, you will be introduced to the main characters of each book, learn why each was banned, and hear a bit from the author of the book. Links to borrow each book will also be provided if you are interested in checking them out for yourself!
