This blog is for the use of 8th grade students to share and improve their writing. The students will respond to novel discussions and will choose topics of interest to blog about and I will moderate and administrate their posts. Our goal is to share our voices with an authentic audience who will provide us feedback on our thoughts. We hope you enjoy our work!

Banning Books
Some books should be banned. Types of books that should be banned are ones that release government secrets, military secrets, someone's private life, and books that tell about someone's life without permission. Other than that books are okay. People say books can hurt, but how it is not the book's fault it is the person reading it. Why ban books? You cannot stop someone from reading a book, that person has freedom.

Nice job Stephen. In your last sentence you said, "You cannot stop someone from reading a book, that person has freedom." I disagree with you a little about that. I believe that school libraries should ban some books, if they are inappropriate in any way. Also, I think that parents should be aloud to tell their kids if they can't read a book (as long as they're under 18). I think that parents should have the authority to tell their kid not to read something. Great post though!
