A dazzling YA anthology that spotlights the transformative power of books while equipping teens to fight for the freedom to read, featuring the voices of 15 diverse, award-winning authors and illustrators.
Books are disappearing from shelves across the country. What does this mean for authors, illustrators, and—most crucially—for young readers? This bold collection of fiction, memoir, poetry, graphic narratives, essays, and other genres explores book bans through various lenses, and empowers teens to fight back.
Reviews
“An empowering and critically timely blueprint for action.”
“Concluding with ample resources such as extensive recommended book lists and examples of what readers can do to support the ongoing fight against book bans, this anthology acts as a call to action and a form of protest, using the power of words to inspire hope and unity.”
“Banned Together is a must-have anthology for libraries, as well as an invaluable personal resource for high school readers.”
This book might appeal to fans of (Don’t) Call Me Crazy by Kelly Jensen and Nevertheless We Persisted by In This Together Media.
