Writing a book
report can be a lot of fun. It gives you a chance to read a new book and then
tell what you thought about it.
Here are some
of the things you need to include in the book report
:
The Book
Details
List the name
of the book and who wrote it. Why did you choose this book? Did the title sound
interesting or was it about something that you like? Describe what made you
decide on this book.
The Setting
Where did the
story take place? Was it in a city or on a farm? Was it a made-up place or
somewhere in outer space? Give a good description of the place with as much
detail as possible.
The Characters
Who was the
story about? Was there just one main character or were there a few? When you
write about the characters, include their names and what they look like.
The Story
What happened
in the book? Was there a problem the characters were trying to solve? Were the
characters on some sort of an adventure? Describe what happened in the
beginning, the middle and the end of the book.
Your Thoughts
Did you like
the book? Write a little bit about why you liked or didn’t like the book. Talk
about how the book made you feel – happy, sad, excited. Would you tell your
friends to read this book?
