Book Reports
Writing a book report is a way to tell others about a book you
have been reading.
In order to write a good book report the following must be
talked about:
There are several parts that all good book reports share;
1. Title and Author
A book report must include the title and author of the book.
Sometimes ,the publication date, which is found on the back
of the title page at the beginning of the book.
Example:
Characters
Characters are the people or animals in the story.
A book report should tell something important about each main character.
You do not need to name every single character in the book,
just the most important ones.
In this case Mathieu would have to write a brief description
about Pinnochio and other main characters.
Setting
The setting of a book is where and when the story takes place.
While many books include more than one location, in a
book report you should describe the most important
one or two places.
If the time period is important to the story, include it in the
book report.
For example, the story might take place during the World wars.
Plot
The plot is the action of the story.
Summarize the plot when writing the book report, only the most
important points should be included.
Endorsement
Your endorsement is your opinion of the book. Do you recommend it to other readers?
Why or why not?
