Last month the American Library Association released its list of the Most Challenged Books of 2007. The number one most challenged book is And Tango Makes Three by Justin Richardson and Peter Parnell. This award-winning book is based on the true story of two male penguins who raise a penguin chick and form a family. Check out the entire list, read some of the books and make your own decisions. A fellow librarian shared a quote at a meeting the other day and it went something like this:
"We try to protect children from the stories that some of them are living every day."
