Design your very own Book Trailer
Book trailers are very similar to the movie trailers you view before a movie at the theatre. The idea of a movie trailer is to give you a sense of the story so that you'll want to read it. They can be great guides to helping you choose your next book to read. Your goal is to help HCS build a resource page for books offered in our school library. Books of all levels are encouraged to be submitted. Read a book and then plan a time to build a Movie trailer.
