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 Mysterious Child
Anna was hurting this holiday season since Dan died in
January. Her heart was hurting but she decided to fake it for her family. She
decided to go downtown and start on her Christmas shopping.
Suddenly a young girl walked up to her and held her hand.
She said, “Hello Anna. I want to keep you company.” Anna looked around but didn’t
see any adult and asked the child if she had permission to be there. The child
smiled and said, “Of course Anna. Let’s look at all the decorations that people
put up!”
As they walked, she tried to ask the girl who she was and
where her parents were but the girl just chattered on about the decorations as
she held Anna’s hand. The more she talked, the more comfort Anna felt.
Who was this child? Why did she give Anna comfort when it
was needed so badly? (150 words)
