Just A Lot of Air Pollution

Seems weird that it would take a presidential speech to get this point across: information is free, and you’re free to disregard it, too. What’s the point of burning a book? It just generates unnecessary smoke, it won’t make the information disappear…

HAPPY BANNED BOOKS WEEK!

About the author

tanita s. davis is a writer and avid reader who prefers books to most things in the world, including people. That's ...pretty much it, she's very boring and she can't even tell jokes. She is, however, the author of nine books, including Serena Says, Partly Cloudy, Go Figure, Henri Weldon, and the Coretta Scott King honored Mare's War. Look for her new MG, The Science of Friendship in 1/2024 from Katherine Tegen Books.
