Book Jacket Project
Create a Book Jacket for the book you just read:
Include:
1. (Front Cover) Illustration that shows an important scene from the story (don’t copy the one actually on your book, be original!), the title and author. Also include your name and date.
2. (Front and Back Flaps) Information about the story in at least two well written paragraphs. (5-6 sentences each) that explain:
-Main characters (who they are, describe them in detail)
-Setting (time and place)
-Plot Summary (what happens)
-Describe the big Problem and Solution of the story.
3. (Back Cover) Your opinion of the story (be specific…for example “I liked it when Charlotte’s babies came to stay with Wilbur at the end of the story. It made me feel like he would be ok because he still had friends.”) Would you recommend this story to a friend? Why or why not?.
