My absolutely favorite banned book is "And Tango Makes Three," by Justin Richardson and Peter Parnell. This is a delightful picture book and an absolutely true story about two male, zoo penguins who take it upon themselves to not only care for each other but to adopt an "orphaned" egg and raise the chick as their own. It amazes me that this simple story has raised so much controversy. I suppose even truth is unacceptable for some people when it stands in the face of what they want to believe. As for the rest of the frequently challenged books list, it reads like a "Best of World Literature" list to me. So many of my favorites are on it!
