Content: Ban This Book has a simple premise, a well meaning mother wants books removed from an elementary school library for various reasons that are important to her. However, when avid reader Amy Anne learns her favorite novel is on the list, the quiet little book worm takes action. Amy Anne enlists help from her friends Danny and Rebecca to save the books from being banned. This novel made me sad, angry, and helpless as I read, because I know many books are banned daily in schools across the US. However, I also felt hopeful, because there are Amy Anne's who can help fight the good fight to protect our right to read ALL books. Amy Anne said it best. " Nobody has the right to tell you what books you can and can't read. Except your parents." I'm so thankful to NetGalley for allowing me to be an early reader of this novel in exchange for a fair and honest review. I'm also thankful to Alan Gratz for continuing to tackle important issues in his novels.
