Hi OOM Readers, as you may know September 21st to September 27th is Banned Books Week. This week gathers book lovers from all over to recognize the importance of 
freedom of speech and expression in the written form. The theme for the 2014 Banned Books Week is Graphic Novels. In case you missed it, check out Morgan’s post about Banned Books Week here.
For the second year in a row, The Adventures of Captain Underpants by Dav Pilkey has topped the year’s Top 10 list of banned books. It is no surprise that our favorite superhero author Dav is helping to spread a positive message about his books and the freedom to seek and express ideas. Check out Dav’s blog post on The Huffington Post as well as exclusive artwork for Banned Books Week.
Dav, along with Graphix author/illustrator Jeff Smith (Bone), was interviewed this morning on NPR’s
Morning Edition. Listen to the interview here.
Also, be sure to also check out the awesome video below where Dav talks and draws about how you can express your disapproval of a book without infringing on the rights of others.
