YAOur Freedom to Read series.
Each volume contains information about specific popular children and young adults books that have been challenged or banned. The brief entries first outline plot then present overviews of the censorship issues and "Landmark Challenges"; further reading about the cases and short author biographies are also included. Though they don't delve deep, these overviews provide starting points for researchers. Ind. Review covers these Our Freedom to Read titles: Classic Books, Coming-of-Age Fiction, Outsider Fiction, and Science Fiction and Fantasy.
