Banned book week?

By Angela

I never know that there was a banned book week until my teacher told me. Band book week in my opinion is not necessary. Kids know what they can handle to read and what they can't. For example when kids are in first and second grade are they going to get attracted to a thick chapter book or are they going to get attracted to picture books. I remember when I was in that grade level I would always go see the picture book about princesses or animals. Then as I got older I got bored of those picture book and started looking at chapter book about ice skating and stuff like that. From there I just started reading more and more chapter books.

I looked through the band book week list and I read a couple of those book and I liked then a lot. A lot of the books in that list looked interesting I asked my teacher if he had any of them, which he did. One of the books on my list was The Lovely Bones which my teacher had and is letting my borrow it. So far it is a really good book and I am looking forwarding to reading other books from the banded book week list.

I also think that there is no need for the band book week because kids know what they should read and what they shouldn't. My parents don't really care what I read as long as I read. My mom doesn't really enjoy reading and my dad reads sometimes, he reads stories about the future and space. When I was younger he used to tell me about the books that he read and I would be interested. Well that's my opinion about banned book week.
