Banned book video-the perks of being a wallflower
For this project, we had to choose a book that had been banned from school for it's content. The book I chose was The Perks of being a Wallflower by Stephen Chbosky. This book was banned because it talks about drugs, sex, alcohol, and suicide. I think it's important to read these banned books because they talk a lot about these harsh subjects that happen everyday all over the world. Banned books are very creative and engaging. A lot of these books are relate able. For example, my book was about these kids who were in high school experiencing new feelings and urges. Some of these kids are depressed, some are druggies or they party a lot and they start having sex and I know that kids in high school can relate to this kind of stuff. It's important to read banned books because they also teach.
