Back of the Book Blurb #108 Challenge

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!)

A Mother’s Love

Bambi had lost her mother and didn’t know where to go. She was so scared! Eventually she wandered out of the edge of the woods ad saw a barn. Maybe there would be some food and water there! Slowly, she creeped up to the barn but froze when she saw this big dog in front of her. Softly, the dog, Clover,  said hello and tried not to scare the deer. Clover asked Bambi where her mother was and why she was there, but Bambi had no answers. Clover slowly moved to Bambi and hugged her. Clover told Bambi that she was welcome to stay with her and her puppies because she would want someone to do the same for her pup if one was lost. After comforting Bambi, Clover said she would help Bambi find her mother. Would Clover be able to help find Bambi’s mother?  (146 words)

The Brick Wall

Every day he heard the children as they walked past him, but they never noticed him. They were all involved in their little dramas and he found it interesting to hear what their hopes and dreams were.

He missed being a human but ever since that night when something happened, and he could change into inanimate objects, he found that a brick wall was the best thing to be. He could hear what people were saying and no one bothered him.

Yet, when he saw the bullies picking on little Peter, it made him mad. He wished Peter would stand up to the bullies, but Peter just put his head down as if he was ashamed of being alive. Racking his brain, he tried to think of something he could do to help Peter without traumatizing him. Surely there was a way to get Peter to stand up for himself! (150 words)

The Swimming Challenge

Anna was going to take the plunge this year! She was tired of sitting on the sidelines watching everyone have fun! No one knew that she didn’t know how to swim and thought she didn’t like getting wet. Her husband dragged her to the pool because he liked to swim. The things you do for love! That little kid kept splashing water on her every chance she could get and then run away giggling. When she dived off the diving board and drenched Anna with water, that was the last straw. She was not going to be intimidated by that little monster anymore. Anna was going to sign up for swimming lessons! This was the year to overcome her fear! So, when she went into the office to sign up, the only spot left was with the class full of 5-year olds! She would do it anyway! (148 words)
