Those funny Americans and their love of banning books. Just one step away from burning them, really. Anyway, over at Dose Magazine, I found a link to a list of the 100 Most BannedChallenged Books in the US (1990-2000). The ones I’ve read:

• The Chocolate War by Robert Cormier
• The Adventures of Huckleberry Finn by Mark Twain
• Of Mice and Men by John Steinbeck
• The Catcher in the Rye by J.D. Salinger
• The Witches by Roald Dahl
• To Kill a Mockingbird by Harper Lee
• Flowers for Algernon by Daniel Keyes
• Brave New World by Aldous Huxley
• James and the Giant Peach by Roald Dahl
• The Anarchist Cookbook by William Powell
• Guess What? by Mem Fox
• Lord of the Flies by William Golding
• Carrie by Stephen King
• The Dead Zone by Stephen King
• The Adventures of Tom Sawyer by Mark Twain
• Where’s Waldo? by Martin Hanford
• Pillars of the Earth by Ken Follett

I’m amazed as to the number of Roald Dahl books on there! And Where’s Waldo?.
