Alice Series Tops ALA’s List of Most Challenged Books in 2003
Harry Potter has been unseated as the most challenged book this year, ending a four-year reign of J.K. Rowling’s series. Instead, Phyllis Reynolds Naylor’s Alice series takes the lead in 2003, according to the American Library Association.
The press release includes the ten most challenged books of the year and some complaints associated with the books. Some of the books on the list are old “favorites,” like Bridge to Terabithia and Of Mice and Men.
I read two books in the Alice series for Banned Books Week in September and blogged my thoughts: checking the books out and my report after reading them.
