Thanks for the link. Hope this also ends up as a DVD.

QNPoohBear | 9052 comments I don't think this will end up as a DVD unless they expand it. It's only 27 minutes including credits. I thought it was a little bit disingenuous because they didn't explain where/why certain books were banned and the quotes they read from the banned and challenged books were often not the part of the book that was objected to. The children were cute and wise. I had already seen the interview with the 4th graders.

It's worth watching and I hope it wins to bring awareness to the subject and how the children feel about their books being banned/challenged/restricted.
