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!)
Coming Home
Today was the day! All of the dogs heard that the star was arriving home. Who would have thought that a movie star wanted to come back here! They couldn’t wait.
When the town heard that Lassie was retiring and coming home, everyone got excited. A big parade was planned! There were lots of receptions planned to honor her arrival. Even the mayor was bragging about it to others!
The group hadn’t seen her in years and they hoped that she hadn’t changed too much. Would she remember them? When they were growing up together, they had all bonded. They all grew up in the same shelter before they were put up for adoption. Eagerly they waited for her arrival.
But, wait! The limo arrived, and the driver jumped out and ran inside. Apparently, Lassie never showed up at the airport! What happened to her? (145 words)

Pat--And an even bigger surprise--Lassie was a boy. (I seem to remember that scandal when I was younger.)
Thanks for playing along. I hadn't even though of all those dachshunds going to a "star" event. ;)
Oh, no! I think Lassie's old friends should be taken to the last place Lassie was sighted. If anybody can sniffer her out, it's them.
