101 Things @ Ping Yi | Y.O!

Innovation by design | Creating Book Talks and Book Trailers for Libraries

Here are some tips and tricks: 1. The book trailer should be between 1 – 3 minutes. 2. Introduce the title, author and suitable age range of readers. 3. If possible, include a graphic of the cover page. 4. Give a brief overview of the book, but don’t give too much away as the whole point is for the person to pick up the book and read it. I just hate it when a movie trailer gives away the entire plot line. 5. Use your own voice and possibly a head shot when talking about the book. 6. It may seem obvious, but pick a book you have read and would love to do as your first book trailer. Your enthusiasm will naturally come through. ^{link »}

Use of graphics/ illustration to reinforce/ enhance the page content. ^{link »}

Example of a hook. Notice "My mother" and "harpy". Three things conveyed here: This is a child; a secret is implied; it involves a mythical creature. ^{link »}

Seems to me that writing about the girl's physical condition here is a way to sustain the reader's interest. Preceding paras are about seemingly mundane details that set the context of the story.

So this para here is to add in new and interesting plot ideas. ^{link »}

Notice the use of White Spaces. ^{link »}

Notice how this one sentence has been singled out, for emphasis. ^{link »}

Statement is singled out for emphasis. ^{link »}

The plot idea: of a mythical creature coexisting with a typical city setting. ^{link »}

Thank you for the lesson « my vanilla world

The title made me wonder "what lesson"? ^{link »}

The "hook". Notice how this line stands alone. And the direct concise way of writing. ^{link »}

Consider the author's choice of words: "tearing through". ^{link »}

The linkage to "lessons", i.e. even in death the deceased was still in a position to teach others. ^{link »}

Overall comments: The writing is in sequence but the use of white space, the logical sequence and insertion of commentaries/ reflection - the flow just makes the reading continue to the end. ^{link »}

Think about his choice of words: "fighting", "hamstrung". ^{link »}

More of the "fighting" analogy. Also, notice the use of whitespace and overall symmetry of the piece. ^{link »}
