As a standardbearer for intellectual freedom, the school librarian is in an ideal position to collaborate with teachers to not only protect the freedom to read but also ensure that valued books with valuable lessons are not quarantined from the readers for whom they were written. In this classroom and libraryready book of discussion guides, awardwinning champion of children's literature Pat Scales shows that there is a way to teach these books while respecting all views.The twelve books featured in Teaching Banned Books, all challenged at one time or another, are jumpingoff points for rich and engaging discussion among young readers, their librarians and teachers, and their parents. Each guide includes a summary of the novel, a prereading activity, tips for introducing the topic, criticalthinking discussion questions, and an annotated bibliography of related fiction and nonfiction.
