Although I believe I thanked everyone personally, I'd like to again thank everyone
for their suggestions.
Several people asked me for a HIT.
As I was looking for books to guide me, I've compiled a list of the book
suggestions that everyone sent:

"Ten guards and the warden couldn't have torn me out of those books. Months passed
without even thinking about being imprisoned....I had never been so truly free in
my life." - Malcolm X
"Some kids go to the library ... Others to the street. But they can't go to the
libraries if the libraries are closed." - Officer Dombranski, NYPD
"Kids are living stories every day that we wouldn't let them read." -Josh Westbrook
"The best morals kids get from any book is just the capacity to empathize with
other people, to care about the characters and their feelings. So you don’t have to
write a preachy book to do that. You just have to make it a fun book with
characters they care about, and they will become better people as a result." -
Louis Sachar
"Our schools are filled with kids who have been treated badly all their lives. They
don't tell anyone, because there is shame in being treated badly. Many-girls and
boys-have been sexually mistreated. Still others struggle in fear with sexual
identity. They respond with eating disorders, cutting, suicidal thought or action.
I can't tell you how many letters I've received from kids who found a friend in one
of my books, a character who speaks to them. And if I get those letters, think of
the letters Walter Dean Myers, or Lois Lowry, or Judy Blume get, thanking us for
letting them know, through literature, that they are not alone. In light of all
that, there's really only one thing to say to the censors. Shut up."-Chris Crutcher
