Banned Books Agatha Has Read

What are Banned Books? (From Barnes and Noble)
Books were being banned in countries across the world long before the first public libraries appeared in parts of America. Typically, books were banned on moral, religious, or political grounds. They were believed to be obscene or too controversial to be read by society. Although we usually think of classics like George Orwell's 1984 when referring to books that were banned, there are still many books being challenged and censored every year. Books that explore race, sexuality, and new concepts and ideas are still often prohibited by certain communities, although they can easily be purchased in most bookstores. Even Pulitzer Prize winning books like Art Spiegelman's Maus, world-wide bestsellers like Margaret Atwood's The Handmaid's Tale, and household staples like Harry Potter have recently been challenged and restricted.
