"The beautiful part of writing is that you don't have to get it right the first time, unlike, say, a brain surgeon. You can always do it better, find the exact word, the apt phrase, the leaping simile."
--Attributed to Robert Cormier (1925-2000)

Cover of The Chocolate War by Robert Cormier

Banned Book of the Day:
The Chocolate War by Robert Cormier

“Do I dare disturb the universe?”

Cormier did, and schools banned him for it. Too dark, too honest, too real. It made adults uncomfortable. That was the point.
