Welcome to the Banned Books Week Giveaway Hop!
This hop is hosted by two awesome bloggers; Kathy over at I Am A Reader, Not A Writer and Jen over at I Read Banned Books. You should be grateful! Not only are they raising awareness for a very important annual event, but they are offering up a way for you to enter a slew of great giveaways in the process!
Take some time this week to peruse the blogs of the 250+ bloggers participating; read their views on censorship in schools and libraries and enter their giveaways. Also take some time to visit the websites and blogs of some of the authors often banned and/or challenged (for lists, visit ALA's page on the matter HERE). This hop will run the course of Banned Books Week, beginning on September 24th at midnight, and ending at 12:01am on October 2nd
