She posts a picture and you need to imagine it as a graphic for a book. You choose the genre and book title, and then write a blurb that might appear on the back of the book.
The blurb should be 150 words or less (not including the title). The genre is wide-open.
Each blogger should include their blurb on their own blog, and link back to this post. Have fun with it. Go to the other posts and comment on the other blurbs. You can do fancy techy things with the photo.
(Join in if you dare...! It sounds like fun! I think this would be a lot of fun to do with students especially since they would be expected to write 150 words or less!)
The Magic Zoo
Stryder loved to go to different hospitals and make children smile. His favorite place was to go in the children’s cancer wards because they believed in magic.
He would lay out his magic paper and begin drawing. Soon, the children would start gathering and watching. Some would even ask questions or talk about what they were seeing. Before long, as the children watched, the animals would come alive. They would work their magic on the children and before long the children would be smiling and even laughing. The best part is that only the children would see the animals come alive. None of the nurses knew what was going on but they were just glad to see the children so happy.
After a couple of hours, the animals would return to the paper and Stryder would roll up his magic paper and move on to another hospital in another city. (150 words)

What an uplifting story! I never would have thought of that angle.
