Fun home by alison bechdel6/1/2023 ![]() ![]() ![]() In 2006, Louise Mills of Marshall, Missouri, requested that the book (and another graphic novel, Blanketsby Craig Thompson) be removed from the local public library. Why was it challenged/banned?: From CBLDF:Īs with many critically-acclaimed books - particularly graphic novels - Fun Home soon drew the attention of would-be censors. Today’s banned book review is Fun Home by Alison Bechdel. Also, check out the people over at The Uprise Books Project and their efforts to end poverty through literacy. Their work helps keep comics on bookshelves. While you’re at it, go help the good folks over at CBLDF if you can. Thanks to the Comic Book Legal Defense Fund for the handy dandy list. In honor of Banned Books Week, my buddy Eric over at The Other Comic Book Teacher and I are going to review comics and graphic novels that have been challenged. ![]()
