Award-winning author Amy Sarig King takes on censorship and intolerance in her critically acclaimed novel Attack of the Black Triangles. "I think lies are the same as crossing out words in a book. I mean, isn't it a lie to think you know better than everyone else?" writes Mac, the student at the story's center. The New York Times comments that King "embeds the story of kids fighting for intellectual freedom inside the story of a sixth-grade boy."
