Book Report Term 3: Sell me Your Book!



For your book report this quarter, you will "sell" your book to your classmates. You may choose to do this in several ways. Choose ONE:
  • Create a movie poster. It should look good, have key characters, a symbol from the book, and a "blurb." It should also have a rating. (See samples in class). You will need quotes to support your choices.
  • Create a soundtrack for your book. You should have a plot outline of key moments, a CD of the songs (if you need help with the CD, come talk to me), and key lyrics highlighted to demonstrate your knowledge of the book. You will need to play parts of this for the class. You will need quotes to support your choices.
  • Create a commercial to sell your book. There are a variety of these available to see. Try this one at Amazon.com for The Fault in our Stars. Here's the book I bought  my husband for Christmas: Tess Gerritsen's Last to Die a Rizzoli & Isles mystery.
  • Create a book display like the professionals do to promote or sell your book. It would have a poster, blurbs, items/symbols, and other interesting items about your book. You will need quotes to prove you read it!
