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 Polite Police
The town of Polite had just about had it! They were tired of
people being rude to others. They were tired of people not holding the door
open for others. They were tired of people not saying Please and Thank You. Adults
were not even teaching their children any more how to be polite. Who wants to
come to a town called Polite if no one even acted polite? The town council
decided to take action! There would be repercussions if people didn’t start
acting polite. They put up posters around the town warning people. Would this
be enough to change people or will they spend their time standing in the
corner? Or would their punishments be even harsher? Read more to see what the
consequences were and if the town changed their impolite ways! (135 words)
