Read along with us this month! Late September is Banned Book Month so we selected a frequently banned book - ARE YOU THERE GOD? IT'S ME, MARGARET by Judy Blume.

Learn more about banned book week here and see some more frequently banned books.

Synopsis:

Published in 1970, this classic has been banned due to its frank discussions of puberty, menstruation, and sexuality, which some find offensive or inappropriate for young readers. The book also explores religious questioning, which has been a point of contention for some.

While the book has been challenged and banned in various locations, it has also been widely praised for its honest portrayal of a young girl's coming-of-age experience and its ability to resonate with readers. The novel's themes of self-discovery, faith, and the challenges of adolescence have made it a popular and enduring work for many, according to some literary critics. .
