Week 1 - March 17 - 18, 2011

Give the title, author, publisher, copyright date, genre (how do you know the genre - from the back of the book, the title page, the text?), a description of the cover of the book, and the main character(s) you have met so far and on what page you first met them.

      


 The book I am reading is The Wright 3 by Elizabeth Balleitt Klein. The publisher of this magnificent book is the Scholastic Press. The copyright date was 2006
               
       The genre of my book is  mystery. I know that this is the genre of my book because a mytery book is known as fiction. I know this because as you read on into the story it gives you little hints that the book is a mystery. By stating that there "once was a girl who believed she could solve this" In the book they had stated this. Throughout the book they would drop little hints just shouting out two you "hey this is a mystery book" I thought it was pretty cool!
       
      If the book was non-fiction it would have a whole back ground info spot (meaning a little summary) on that specific person but this book does not which makes it fiction. 

      The cover of my book shows two boys and a girl. Behind them there is a creepy looking building that I think is their school. It is full of many colors. From Light browns to dark browns. In the windows you can see that the lights are on and they are bright.The boy on the left up close side of the book is holding some type of like food or object. The moon is laid down slightly beneath the trees. You can barley see it.  I have not met any characters yet due to the fact that they are going over like the mystery the kids are trying to solve.
