faced by authors, editors, educators, reviewers, publishers, and librarians, and whether bans
intimidate writers and publishers. Controversial reading topics for children, including birth and
adoption, Black history, sex education, and strangers, will also be addressed. Van Duinen will
highlight how censorship issues affect her work training tomorrow’s teachers and planning
programs like the “Big Read” and “Little Read.”
