This is another category I am not sad to see disappear for 2016. In looking at my books for the last few years the titles I have read that have been banned/excluded somewhere at sometime include: The Hitchiker's Guide to the Galaxy, the Harry Potter series, the Hunger Games series, Anne of Green Gables, Ender's Game, etc. No real surprises.

I don't have any nominations yet but here are some links that may help others find things that are interesting too:
100 Most Frequently Banned Books - Lists for 1990-1999 and 2000-2009
Banned and Challenged Classics
Goodreads lists of banned books
Wikipedia list of books banned by governments
Most surprising banned books
Banned "children's" books

This title made me laugh: The Earth, My Butt, and Other Big, Round Things, by Carolyn Mackler

At this point, I am leaning towards nominating Winnie the Pooh but I need to look a bit more.
