The talking animals in Charlotte's Web?!?! Give me a break! Charlotte's Web is a wonderful book, and it epitomizes faith, belief, courage and people (animals lol) working together. God, I remember crying at the end of it :)<br />Anyway, I'm with YOU, Suzanne - it's important to take a stand for our right to read!!!<br /><br />Thanks for the recap, it was excellent and led me back to the other related posts. <br /><br />And, I'd LOVE to read Pillars of the Earth - I've heard before in passing how good this book is, but I've never had the chance to read it. I love historical novels, too.<br /><br />Thanks for the giveaway :)<br />And I am a follower as well.M.A.D.https://www.blogger.com/profile/14924439808069320143noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5447574405650512339.post-49379127743689675032009-10-04T18:23:42.932-04:002009-10-04T18:23:42.932-04:00Clever giveaway!

That is what it means for me too. It's not just about the availability of books or someone telling me I can't read a particular a book. It is about the freedom to read and to express my own views and thoughts.<br /><br />I hope you have a great week, Suzanne!Literary Felinehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13079276242303738719noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5447574405650512339.post-39574537534854402322009-10-04T13:28:26.752-04:002009-10-04T13:28:26.752-04:00Thanks for the great week highlighting banned book...Thanks for the great week highlighting banned books, and what a great idead for a giveaway.
