Your two favorite public library supporters are back to finish our series on Kirsten Miller's book Lula Dean's Little Library of Banned Books! In Part 1 we summarized the plot of the book, in Part 2 we discussed the context behind the book, and now in Part 3 we will be using what we have learned to analyze, rate, and rank this book! After that we will be leaving this fantasy world of book banning behind and entering the real world where surely we have solved that problem by now, right?

We are back again with Part Two of our series on Kirsten Miller's book Lula Dean's Little Library of Banned Books! If you missed Part One, go back and check it out for a plot summary of this excellent recent release (or better yet, pick up a copy and read it yourself!). In this part we will be familiarizing ourselves with the context behind the book, namely the history of book bans in America! There is an unfortunately long history of book censorship around the world and in America that has culminated in a strange surge in the past few years. What led us to this point? Is it really as serious as some people say? Can we vote to take away a person's teaching license? Find out all this and more on this week's episode?
