Upon researching banned and challenged books, 3Teachers1Blog has found two websites that speak out on both sides of the debate: 1. "Freedom to Read Statement" and 2. "Parents Against Bad Books In Schools."

 Both of these websites provide information regarding banned and challenged books, and why they believe theirs is correct. Our job isn't to tell you which side is better; we want you to decide for yourselves.

Check 'em out here:
