A propos de cet article

A Junior Library Guild Selection"Highly recommended for readers passionate about activism." - SCHOOL LIBRARY JOURNAL, Starred Review"Sure to inspire today's youthful generation of tenacious changemakers." - BOOKLIST, Starred Review"The messages of hope are universal." - PUBLISHERS WEEKLY, Starred Review"A timely read about friendship amid chaos." - NPR"It's hard to imagine a world where Banned Book Club could be more relevant than it is right now." - A.V.
