Question: Help With Children's Books!?
I need some good examples of famous children's books for a project I'm doing for English class!. I need to make a pretend poster, convincing people to support banning a book, but I can't think of a story where there might be something bad about it! Any help!?Www@QuestionHome@Com


Best Answer - Chosen by Asker:
Any children's book that mentions witchcraft, ghosts, sorcery, homosexuality, the human body/sexuality (in general), death, and the holocaust are fair game for book banning!.

Alvin Schwarz's Scary Stories are on ALA's top 100 list of banned/challenged books!.

Other books on the frequently challenged/banned list include:

Harry Potter series by JK Rowling
Daddy's Roommate by Michael Willhoite
The Chocolate War by Robert Cormier
Bridge to Terabithia by Katherine Paterson
Goosebumps (Series) by R!.L!. Stine
In the Night Kitchen by Maurice Sendak
James and the Giant Peach by Roald Dahl
