a practical, inspiring guide for writing outstanding book reports

Students will write great book reports as they follow the guidelines in this concisely-structured book. Outline headings and leading questions prompt students to include essential information and selective portrayals of main characters, settings, or story objectives. Description-enhancement lessons help to stimulate interesting or colorful accounts of the story's characters and content. A vocabulary enrichment page is included on which readers list unusual or difficult words found in the book. Definitions are added to ensure understanding of the terms. Tips for oral book reports and fun activities such as designing a book jacket or drawing sequence cartoons representing story parts round off the lessons in this unique book.--From publisher's description
