This week is Banned Book Week and the normal thing to do this week is to read a banned book. Check out the American Library Association Banned Books site for more information including a list of the most often challenged books and authors.

Here is the list of most challenged authors from 1990-2004:

1. Alvin Schwartz
2. Judy Blume
3. Robert Cormier
4. J.K. Rowling
5. Michael Willhoite
6. Katherine Paterson
7. Stephen King
8. Maya Angelou
9. R.L. Stine

Here is the list of 100 most frequently challenged books of 1990-2000.

I think I’ll go peruse Where’s Waldo as one of the more ridiculously challenged books.
