Of Mice and Men by John Steinbeck
The Catcher in the Rye by J.D. Salinger
The Color Purple by Alice Walker
A Wrinkle in Time by Madeleine L’Engle
The Handmaid’s Tale by Margaret Atwood
Brave New World by Aldous Huxley
Sleeping Beauty Trilogy by A.N. Roquelaure (Anne Rice)

Native Son by Richard Wright
The Adventures of Tom Sawyer by Mark Twain
Where’s Waldo? by Martin Hanford

I've read a number of others, but they didn't make the list. . . Anyone know why Where's Waldo was banned? Stump one too many people?
