From Sioux's Page, Sioux offers this
challenge.
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!)
Death
by Donuts
When the workers came in to begin their early morning
preparations, they walked in to the kitchen and was horrified! When they turned
on the lights, they saw a huge lump in the dough vat. Suddenly they realized
that it was a dead body covered in the dough mix! Their eyes glazed over as
they rushed to call the police. Detectives Croissant and Strudel arrived to
investigate. Why did this happen at Randy’s donut shop? Who was dead? Randy was
known to be a big gambler and could have owed someone lots of “dough” so was
someone trying to send him a message? They went round and round in their
discussion but hadn’t come up with any leads. All they could come up with were
half-baked ideas. Read more to see how the investigation turns out and who was
the real killer! (142 words)

The detectives' names. Lots of dough. Half-baked. Pat, you really threw in the puns this time. I definitely want to know whodunit.
Heh, heh! Croissant and Strudel and their half-baked ideas!
