Time for some more trivia! What book series was banned for depictions of magic and witchcraft?

UPDATE: The answer is C! While a book in The Magic Treehouse series was removed from TN libraries for a n**e Greek statue in 2025 and one from The Merlin Saga was challenged for depictions of magic in an NY school in 2008, Harry Potter has frequently faced bans since the 1990s.

Join us for a fun, family-friendly Halloween Movie Matinee! Come dressed in your costume(optional) and enjoy snacks as you count down the minutes before it is time to descend upon the streets for trick or treating.
Plot: This is the rambunctious, ridiculous and totally true story of how the Minions conquered Hollywood, became movie stars, lost everything, unleashed monsters onto the world and then banded together to try and save the planet from the mayhem they had just created.

From Monday to Friday, we're hosting some trivia! For our first question, what year did Banned Books Week begin?

UPDATE: The answer for yesterday's trivia question was B: Banned Books Week began in 1982!

The rest of the answers were references to challenged novels. "Brave New World" was published in 1932 and "Fahrenheit 451" in 1953. 1984 of course refers to George Orwell's classic dystopian novel of the same name.

Best of luck with the next question, everyone! 💡
