What Are Your Favorite Banned Books?

'Brave New World'? 'The Hunger Games'? Let us know what edgy book you cherish the most during Banned Books week.

This week, Suffolk County's libraries are displaying books that have been banned at certain places and times — "The Grapes of Wrath," "1984," "Uncle Tom's Cabin" — even the children's classic, "Green Eggs and Ham."

Suffolk Cooperative Library Systems has been posting a blog daily on Patch, introducing one banned book to our readers. They kicked off the week with "The Satanic Verses" by Salman Rushdie, followed today by the Harry Potter series by J.K Rowling. 

So tell us — which banned book is your favorite? Click here for a list of books and the reasons given for banning them.

i believe the best way to locate your teacher is through the commack teachers association (cta).Read More contact the union president, tris stewart, and write a short note. include all the contact information you're comfortable with and wait a bit? 33 years is a long time. good luck.
