Baby’s First Banned Book illustrated by Laura Korzon

Here’s a board book that punches well above its weight. Baby’s First Book of Banned Books introduces your littlest readers to some of the most beloved—and most frequently challenged—stories in literary history.

Think The Diary of Anne Frank. To Kill a Mockingbird. The classics that shaped generations, distilled into bright, bold illustrations and gentle lessons perfect for curious minds just beginning to discover the world.

From the wonderful folks at Mudpuppy, this little book celebrates the simple, powerful idea that stories matter—and that everyone deserves the freedom to read them. It’s an early introduction to empathy, courage, and the kind of big-hearted thinking we love to see take root.

What makes it special:

• Early Learning Made Meaningful — A captivating way for babies and toddlers to encounter the key lessons behind these treasured (and famously banned) books.
• Bright, Bold Artwork — Simple yet striking illustrations paired with messages that stick. Includes a thoughtful glossary explaining each featured title.
• Just-Right Size — A sturdy 7″ x 7″ board book with 30 pages, built for little hands and big imaginations.

It’s the perfect gift for the new parents in your life, the book-loving aunties, or anyone who believes reading is a right worth celebrating from day one.

Stop by and give it a flip. We think you’ll fall for it the way we did—and it’s just the right size to tuck under your arm on your way back across the footbridge.
