À propos de cette écoute

Children's books are in the news lately -- and not always for good reasons. Books for people under 18 are disproportionately the targets of bans and censorship. This is obviously a major issue for free speech, for the rights of often underrepresented groups to tell their stories and for the rights of others to be able to hear those stories. But it’s also a sign that children’s books are actually right in the middle of important political conversations, and attempts to ban them can be ignored at our peril.

This podcast is a deep dive into the children's books that have been censored over the years – and the reasons why. Because it turns out that for as long as children’s books have existed, controversy has never been far behind.


We hope you’ll come along, whether you love children’s books like us, or just enjoy a good story about sex, drugs, war criminals, government crackdowns, accusations of Satanism -- and rabbits drinking tea.

      So Putin's Chef Wrote A Children's Book
      Nov 4 2024

      In this episode we look at Yevgeny Prigozhin — who spent 9 years in a Russian penal colony, interfered in US elections, and founded a mercenary group that has committed war crimes across the globe. And he wrote a really weird children’s book! What’s that about??

      We look at the 2002 picture book "Indraguzik", Adrianna has a theory, and María decides what her supervillain name would be.

    • Little Red Riding Hood

      Little Red Riding Hood
      Oct 12 2024

      Over the years, this fairy tale has been at the centre of all kinds of conversations about sex, politics, and female agency. We take a look at five different times it’s been banned for seeming to be on the wrong side of those conversations — or, in South Africa, just for having the wrong title.

      María and Adrianna poke some holes in the plot of the story, wish for a badass sequel, and realize sadly that we would also probably be fooled by a wolf in an outfit.
