Hi Caron, The title of your book makes me want to know what it is about. Barbara Smellie

[|if I stay by Gayle Forman Book Trailer] Caron, I loved your DBT, it captured the essence of this horrible event and your choice of photos and music were great. You might like the follow-up about Adam; it is titled Where She Went by Gayle Forman. BJ Neary

Caron, I watched your DBT twice. Haunting. I am will definitely have to check this book out. I love the visuals and I love The Smiths! I will be heading to itunes to download Strangeways, Here We Come album. I used to have the cassette. -Holly

I loved this book! I had no idea there was a follow-up, BJ. Will definitely have to read that one next! Your colors and images of your DBT were great! - Nicole [|if I stay by Gayle Forman--Credit Version]

media type="youtube" key="sCDQw6sJBaY" height="315" width="420" Caron, I loved your book talk! I think this would be a book my students would like; just the right amount of horror and snarky:) BJ Neary Hey Caron, great book talk! Why an intriguing and creepy story! I liked that you asked so many questions for your readers to ponder and I liked that you gave a recommendation for the book(something I didn't think to do). Well done. -Holly Frabizio Caron, Props work wonders…I loved your voodoo doll. It must take a little trial and error to determine what will hook your audience, but I do think bringing in an object would really help the potential readers begin to picture the story. I also think you did a good job choosing some vivid images to mention that would intrigue teens. ~Erica

Hi Caron, Well done! I'm not a creepy book person but I think this may be a good one to read.-Barb

Caron..nice job...you sold me on the book!

Digital Book Trailer #2 Miss Peregrine's Home for Peculiar Children
http://animoto.com/play/i8seMCZoX301Bq9WQyLQPA

Caron, I really liked the background and music you chose because it made me think of the book as kind of a stage for what Jacob was uncovering when he found the pictures, the stories, and were they believable, or not? Were those children alive? Since I haven't read the book, I now really want to surprise myself with this book, thanks for a great digital book trailer. BJ Neary

This really makes me want to give Miss Peregrine's another chance! I started reading is over the summer and put it down. I keep hearing such great things, though! - Nicole

I really wanted to read this book before, and now I definitely want to!! I'm having a hard time finding it, but now I know I have to make sure I locate it somehow! - Allison

__**Book Talk #2**__ __**The Name of the Star by Maureen Johnson**__ media type="custom" key="21303500"

Photo: [] Voice: Eric Loyack (I tried to get him to do an English accent but it was too much pressure.) Caron ...I love Jack the Ripper investigation...I would love to read a book on the same...nice voice in the background makes it seem so spooky because the speaker is not seen. Great job LizAnne Crawford Caron, I enjoyed your book talk. It was creepy and definitely drew me in. I'm really curious now what this book is about. I'll have to go look it up on Goodreads! ~ Krista Caron, Wow, I so enjoyed listening to this book talk, from the scarlet background, the caped figure, bloody knife, and the many faces of his victims??? to Eric's purposefully creepy voice, this Fotobabble was exciting! I definitely want to read this book, I love Maureen Johnson. BJ Neary

Caron, I love the maniacal laugh at the end. I have been meaning to check out Maureen's work. Did you know that she went to Arcadia when it was Beaver College? I actually had the pleasure of doing a few shows with her at the theater and had many acting classes with her as well. She would love your dramatic book talk! Great job-Holly

Caron, Using a man's voice was a GREAT idea. It really took me by surprise. ~ Barb

What an interesting title for a book about Jack the Ripper! I think I've said it before, but I'm so interested in this story. I'll have to check this book out! - Nicole

UNIT 11 DBT Will Grayson, Will Grayson DBT Unit 11 Caron, I love your animoto trailer! Perfect music choice and imagery for this book. I read your review on Edublog and now seeing your DBT makes this book a must read for me!! Great job-Holly Caron, wow, I loved your DBT, the background, pictures, text and music were perfect. Thanks for including the weblinks on the last slide. Great job, BJ Neary

Caron- I loved this trailer. The music really hit the theme of the book nicely, and it captured the essence of what I think the book is about. I didn't read your summary on Edublog, but after seeing this, I'm intrigued to learn more about the book!-- Joanna Caron....that was wonderful!!! I loved how you put everything on the diagonal..so colorful and the story looks good too. LizAnne

Caron, Very well done, interesting graphics! Makes you want to read this book, which is the point! Thanks, Kathleen Cusick

Caron, Your trailer looks so professional. The slits through each slide seem to really reinforce the surprising duality in the text. I just started this book, and I think that your trailer seems to mirror the mood created by the authors. ~Erica

Caron, What a fantastic DBT! The music, pictures, and text really grabbed my attention and left me wanting to know more about the book and read it. Great work! ~Amy

Hey Caron, Loved your DBT! The music and colors pulled me in from the start.~ Barb __**UNIT 12 Book Talk**__ Zombie Games Caron, I loved the serious announcer broadcast stance you took with warning the people to get their shots, I definitely want to read this book, good job. BJ Neary

Caron, I like that the news broadcaster set-up immediately immersed your audience into the book. It definitely creates some intrigue and sets the tone for the book. ~Erica

I also liked the set-up of your book talk. It got my attention right away. I liked how you incorporated some of the character names in the talk as well. It added to my curiosity. ~ Krista

Like a good book talk should, you certainly got me interested in wanting to go and read the book myself. As others have mentioned, using the news broadcaster set up was an excellent way to peek my interest with the book and the characters in it. Great job! ~Amy

Caron, Your book talk was great! I really liked the way you mentioned the curfew and instructed the residents to stay in their houses. It added a sense of panic and uncertainty. You gave us just enough information to pique or interest, but not give away the story. This book sounds like it is thrilling and suspenseful. Your book talk definitely made me want to pick it up. Excellent job! -Turea

Caron- you're book talk made me think that zombies were attacking the city and you were locked in your house, trying to spread the message. Kind of like "Cloverfield" style, with your camera. Nice job! ~Jen

Caron, I am interested in reading this book. I am curious to find out if people get "the flu" if the medical personal come to their house to vaccinate them or if they do something else?? Maybe I have seen too many zombie/outbreak movies. Good job-Holly __**UNIT 13**__ [|MY YA TOP TEN]

Caron, your Animoto Top 10 was fun and rousing with your music choice and theme. I will definitely be getting the zombie book for my students. great job, BJ Neary

Caron, you used a very clever musical choice. I am definitely going to read //Zombie Games// and //A Bad Day for Voodoo// over the break! Thank-Holly

Caron, Great job on the Top 10, like I just said to Turea, I really like the added description, it was missing in mine, and it really adds interest, very well done! We both put "Sold" at the top of our lists (mine was #2), it was a great book, Kathleen [|Unit 15 Author Study] Caron, what a wonderful Animoto Author Study on John Green; I enjoyed the music and background, too. You covered his books and other essential information, love the Nerdfighters! Great job, BJ Neary

Caron, I liked the quotes that you picked…they seem to provide a good balance to how weird and thoughtful John Green and his characters are. I like that you highlighted missions beyond his writing; he really appears to be a good guy in an addition to a talented writer…readers can learn a lot from him. ~Erica

Hi Caron, I really like your author study. John Green seems to have a lot going on outside of writing and that is very cool. I especially like the vlogbrothers you tube communication (which I will be checking out).- Barb Caron!! Great Animoto!!! Loved the background and the music choice. I had never heard of John Green until this class and I now have a boat-load of books to add to my to-read list! I really liked the quotes that you included in your presentation and I will be listening for John on NPR! Thank you-Holly One of your favorite authors John Green...very entertaining LizAnne
