Synopsis:

They tried to silence these stories―now you can read and reflect on every single one.

Challenge censorship. Celebrate your freedom to read. Discover the banned books that shaped our world.

Read These Banned Books, created by the American Library Association, is a 52-week reading challenge and interactive journal spotlighting the most frequently challenged books. This is more than a list―it's a year-long journey into literary power, censorship, and your role in protecting intellectual freedom.

Each week features a different banned book, the story behind its censorship, and thoughtful prompts to help you connect its themes to your life. Perfect for solo readers or groups, this journal delivers a personal and empowering reading experience.

Inside you'll find:

  • 52 essential banned books, curated by the ALA
  • The history and context behind each book's controversy
  • Reflection prompts and journaling space
  • Flexible, start-anytime format―ideal for individuals, classrooms, or book clubs

Whether you're defending the right to read at school, leading a library discussion, or journaling at home, Read These Banned Books connects you to stories once suppressed―and a movement that says books belong to everyone.

Join the thousands standing up for intellectual freedom. Your banned book journey starts here.
