Speak by Laurie Halse Anderson

Centers around a teenage girl who is raped and struggles to speak about it.

Challenged for “sexual content” and being “inappropriate” for young readers.

Some parents feel it’s too graphic, despite its role in raising awareness about assault.

I Am Malala by Malala Yousafzai has been banned or challenged in some places, including parts of the U.S. Some schools have removed it from reading lists because of concerns over its discussions on Islam, female education, and Western influence.

The Handmaid's Tale by Margaret Atwood

A chilling dystopian novel set in a totalitarian society where women are reduced to reproductive tools.

Atwood's exploration of power, control, and resistance is thought-provoking.

Relevant to today's issue,
about women's freedom.
