Hi Lesa,
I posted yesterday about Banned Books Weeks (http://jensbookthoughts.blogspot.com/2008/09/banned-books-week-2008.html )
I also linked to Corey at The Drowning Machine who has a fabulous post about Banned Books Week.

Thank you, Vicki! I'm going to check out the post when I get home in a couple hours.
I'll have to check out both posts, Jen. Thank you! And, I'll look forward to Friday's posting.
