Playaway Shares Banned Books in Its Collection for Banned Books Week

Playaway states, “Playaway Products knows access isn’t optional. For every reader, in every community, the freedom to read is a fundamental right.” It offers a banned books list in its “Wonderbook and Playaway collection [that] makes these powerful titles accessible to all learners. Whether through read-along books that build literacy confidence or pre-loaded audiobooks that travel anywhere, these formats ensure stories cannot be silenced. When we defend access, we affirm that all voices matter, all stories belong, and all readers deserve choice.”
