 * * Make a PowerPoint presentation with at least **10 slides**- this could be a summary of the book, an abridged version of the book, a TV series idea for the book, a commercial for the book or why this book should be a movie. Be sure that you include elements from the entire book (beginning, middle, and end) and not just a portion of the book. ||~  ||
 * * Design a room that a main character would have. Make sure it is detailed with an attached explanation of the room and summary (at least 1 page) of the book. In your explanation explain how the room reflects the character initially and how he/she changes throughout the book. ||~  ||
 * * Illustrate the book with at least 8 pictures. If you would like to illustrate it in graphic novel form (comic book style) go ahead! If not, normal illustrations-computer generated or hand drawn will work fine. Include explanations (1-2 paragraphs) for each illustration. Illustrations should reflect the entire book. ||~  ||
 * * Create a photo album or scrap with at least 8 pages of entries. You may use magazine pictures and/or drawings to illustrate the main characters and events. Write explanations (1-2 paragraphs) for each page. Entries need to reflect and cover the entire book and not just one portion of the book. ||~  ||
 * * Write a letter to the head of a production company convincing them to make a movie and write a letter to the "Fan Club" of the book. You will need to refer to specific scenes in the book to convince a production company so that the producers can "see" the movie before agreeing to make it. Each letter needs to be very detailed and cover at least one single spaced type written page. ||~  ||
