Description:

Ban This Book by Alan Gratz is a funny, heartfelt, and fiercely relevant middle-grade novel about the power of books — and the kids who refuse to give them up. When shy fourth-grader Amy Anne Ollinger discovers that her all-time favourite book has been removed from the school library after a parent complained, she is quietly furious. So she does something about it: she launches a secret Banned Books Locker Library, lending forbidden titles to classmates who want to read them. But what starts as a small act of rebellion quickly snowballs into a full-blown battle over censorship, free expression, and who gets to decide what children can read. Warm, witty, and genuinely inspiring, this is a love letter to books and the courage it takes to stand up for them. Perfect for readers aged 9–12 and book-lovers of all ages.
