Its Freedom to Read week! (Feb 21- 27 2021). In honor of this we are discussing why the freedom to read is important, some of our favorite banned books, and some funny (to us) reasons why books have been banned in the past. The cherry on top of this weeks episode is superstitions. So take your hat of the bed and get ready for some fun!
