Our class assignment this week was to make a "booktalk". For this unfamiliar with what a booktalk is, here's a basic description from Wikipedia:
"A booktalk in the broadest terms is what is spoken with the intent to convince someone to read a book. Booktalks are traditionally conducted in a classroom setting for students. However, booktalks can be performed outside a school setting and with a variety of age groups as well. It is not a book review or a book report or a book analysis. The booktalker gives the audience a glimpse of the setting, the characters, and/or the major conflict without providing the resolution or denouement. Booktalks make listeners care enough about the content of the book to want to read it."
Me and my partner for this assignment, Avery, decided to do ours on a favourite we both share: Anna and the French Kiss by Stephanie Perkins which you can view above. Take a look, and I hope you enjoy!
