Books won’t stay banned. They won’t burn. Ideas won’t go to jail. In the long run of history, the censor and the inquisitor have always lost. The only sure weapon against bad ideas is better ideas. Cite Arrow

In honor of Banned Books Week, my school is having an Edible Book Festival!

bay-leaf:

They’re having a contest for people to make an “artistic rendering” of one of the banned books, only it has to be EDIBLE. Like a cake shaped like Hogwarts or something! (only way more interesting than that)

I’M SO EXCITED HELP ME THINK OF BRILLIANT IDEAS, OKAY?

  1. Download the lists.
  2. Buy the books.
  3. Read them in public places.
  4. Learn from their wisdom and secrets.
  5. Tell your friends, family, (Oxford comma) and loved ones.
  6. Enjoy your newfound enlightenment.

And Tango Makes Three by Justin Richardson and Peter Parnell
A wonderful children’s book illustrating the true story of two male penguins at the New York Central Park Zoo that raised a chick together. I highly recommend you check the book out from your local library. Even if you don’t have any kids to read it to, it’s enjoyable and made me smile. I read it to a high school GSA and the experience was delightful. A great book to keep in mind for future offspring, and not inappropriate at all.

 I love this book. I read it to my 6th grade class every year.
