The following books may seem quite harmless to most, but they still made it onto a banned books list.
3. The "Harry Potter" series, by J.K. Rowling
Some see J.K. Rowling's "Harry Potter" books as wonderful stories that teach that love is the most powerful magic of all and that it's always right to stand up for your friends. Others, however, see a series marred by a depiction of sorcery and witchcraft that are inappropriate for Christian readers. The "Harry Potter" series was banned by, among others, a Catholic school in Massachusetts.
