Slaughterhouse Five by Kurt Vonnegut was banned by my school district when I was in high school way back in the early 1970s. That one went to federal court and it made national headlines back then.

Hi, all you story-tellers. as a relatively new kid on the visually impaired block, I get a kick out of the discussions. and love the dectalk
entertainment.


My local AAUW  book club is doing banned books in september. I found a list
of ALA "most challenged" books but I'm not sure these qualified as "banned". where can I find a good list of books that were banned bit time,and a good story behind the banning?
