Did you know there have been nearly 6,000 book bans since the fall of 2021? And nearly 40% of the books bans in the last school year occurred in Florida? As a mom of two young readers, I can’t imagine letting someone else decide what MY CHILDREN can and cannot read! That’s why this week at my Miami, FL and Sunrise, FL shows, I’m partnering with @penamerica and @booksandbooks to give away banned books to the first 1,000 fans who want them at each show! And tomorrow Sun Nov 12 at 4:30PM ET, I’m having a Live Chat with @amandascgorman and Suzanne Nossel, CEO of PEN America, to talk about banned books in America. Tune-in to join the conversation! And in the meantime, check-out the link in my bio to learn more about how to combat the banning of books in your community. pen.org/pink
