    Let's design a

    book jacket!

    (NCTE, 2018)
    Getting started
    "Take a minute to think about the book jacket designs that
    you have seen. How did the artist decide on the image and
    style? Looking at some of your favorite titles, would you
    have chosen the same artistic style, or description on the
    inside book jacket? What would you do differently? Keep
    the same? How important is the illustration and the book
    jacket description to you when choosing the book? Do you
    ever think about the book jacket summary after you have
    read a book? Was it accurate?" (Make a Book Jacket!). (Kitts, 2018)

    passions? What makes you feel
    happy?
