Due: Monday, October 28

Requirements: For this book report please choose a mystery or suspense book and have it approved with me ASAP.

Directions:

• Using heavy white paper and black markers, create a wanted poster (1/2 of a standard sized poster board) for the character in your novel who is the focus of the mystery, a suspect in the mystery, or a person who committed the crime.

• You should include the following underneath a detailed and colored illustration of the character:

1. Age

2. Height

3. Weight

4. Build

5. Hair Color

6. Eye Color

7. Race/nationality

8. Distinguishing marks or features

• On the back, attach a FULL page typed (12-14 font) summary of the novel including the conflict, who committed the crime, the details of the mystery, and clues that helped solve the mystery. Your summary should be at least three paragraphs.

• DO NOT use glitter or different colors for any of the words. Your poster should resemble a real “wanted” poster.
